The use of solid concrete walls and fl oors gives an inherent acoustic performance. High
levels of performance are achieved with tunnel form because of the monolithic nature of
in-situ concrete. Precast crosswall and twinwall construction can also achieve high per-
formance through correct detailing and construction of the joints between panels.
Cantilevered balconies can be incorporated into the design for most of the systems. This
is simplest to achieve with two-way spanning fl oors such as with tunnel form and lattice
girder fl oors, which provide a backspan to the cantilever. Precast solid slabs also provide a
backspan but the length is limited to the panel width and this may restrict the cantilever
length.

Cellular concrete is replacing traditional materials in the construction industry due to its lightweight, high quality and availability. ... economies and increasing demand by end-use sectors such as commercial buildings, residential buildings, and infrastructure are the major factors driving the market.
What if you put the material under your building because you are concerned about the bearing capacity of the site soils or deep settlement? Placing cellular concrete in a uniform layer under the building provides a strong non-expansive base and reduces the overall weight of the new structure.
