The engineering alternative to the horde bricks for the ”HOLLOW BLOCK” construction system, which is blocks of stretch-formed polystyrene foam covered with a lightweight polymer cement layer on one or two sides. The horde foam is characterized by saving the designer from making wide spans with less reinforcement and less weight. It is the ideal solution in reducing Building loads, SG Hordyis produced in different sizes according to design motives.
Construction work is witnessing continuous development in line with the spirit of the times, whether in the method of construction or the materials used. Among the elements that are witnessing successive development are roofs, which receive special attention from engineers, designers, and those interested in construction. One of the most common modern roofs is the hardwood roof, and the main reason for using the hardwood roof as a slab in construction is to cover larger areas at the lowest cost and with greater safety, such as the terraces of stadiums, universities, mosques, and open halls. It is also used in ceiling tiles to reduce loads, raise internal levels, and in very hot areas, especially the final stage, because it works on thermal and sound insulation, and due to the absence of beams, it allows flexibility for future modifications.
