Airey Block

Building Type Commercial
Block Weight Lightweight

The Airey House is a post-war prefabricated concrete box structure which is formed from closely spaced storey-height columns of steel tube reinforced concrete columns to which thin concrete cladding panels are fastened with copper wire. The embedded steel in the structural concrete columns has eroded over the years due to the lack of concrete cover to the reinforcing tube (particularly at the ends of the columns) carbonation of the concrete and the presence of chlorides. This has resulted in insufficient structural integrity of the columns to support the first floor and roof and to transmit vertical loading to the foundations.

"As a Private housebuilder, building up to 125 dwellings per annum, we converted to Plasmor building blocks and block paving approximately 8 years ago and have never looked back. We have enjoyed exceptional levels of advice, quality and service, especially during the supply chain difficulties of the post-pandemic period."

"The technical advice for design considerations, the SAP rating and air pressure testing service combined with consistent and dependable quality and service is unrivalled. Plasmor drivers are incredibly skilled and helpful on site. The Aglite Ultima “one block on site” solution is a real winner, especially for semi detached houses and there is an amazing choice of block paving to landscape any project.”
