What is Masons 75mm Enviro AAC Panel System

A premium mid-floor solution that’s easy to install and live with offers the benefits of light timber floor framing combined with lightweight concrete flooring.

Masons Enviro Floor System utilises autoclaved Enviro aerated concrete panels (AAC) 75mm thick reinforced withsteel mesh, fixed to light timber floor framing. It is suitable for both residential and light commercial buildings.

How is it Installed?

The thick Enviro AAC steel mesh reinforced panels are bonded to each other and fixed to the floor framing of the building at system-specific spacings using the approved adhesive and galvanised bugle head screws, The panels are 2200 long X 600mm wide, with working density of 600 kg/m3, about ¼ that of ‘standard’ concrete*

System-specific span tables and joist spacings are offered along with design advice to guide designers in planning service placement and bracing through the floor. There is a choice of floor Joist types and adhesives to give the designer and builders maximum flexibility in design and construction methods.

It may be readily installed by building teams or plaster and panel contractors at the client’s discretion. **

*‘Standard’ concrete is estimated at 2400 KG per m3 for comparison purposes.
** An LPB builder or plasterer should supervise the installation.


The Benefits of this System

The installed floor system is squeak-free and uses the structural performance, thermal efficiency, and sound-absorbing properties of AAC panels to create a quiet, very solid, ‘premium-feeling’ floor that will be unobtrusive for occupants.

The 75mm Enviro panel offers an average thermal conductivity of 0.13 w/mk (R.57). This, combined with suitably chosen thermal and nose-reducing Batts on the midfloor, helps control room comfort on either side of the midfloor. 

Enviro AAC panels effectively absorb sound between floors. The inclusion of well-chosen noise control batts and a suspended ceiling system will substantially improve sound control between spaces. The choice of floor coverings will also substantially impact sound transfer. Contact Masons for specific advice.
