Le liège aggloméré expansé pur. Il s’agit de granulés de liège, expansés et agglomérés à la vapeur surchauffée sans adjonction d’aucun agglomérant. C'est un produit naturel, rigide, imputrescible. Un isolant non hydrophile. Il s’avère très efficace contre le froid, la chaleur, les bruits, les vibrations, l'humidité et la condensation. On peut l'installer sous la toiture et sous des parquets flottants(en plaques de 40 mm d’épaisseur). 2, record 1, French, - li%C3%A8ge%20agglom%C3%A9r%C3%A9%20expans%C3%A9

Plastic Concrete - It is of prime importance when selecting materials for a particular construction that the individual materials not only meet the specifications, but also combine into a concrete that can be cast without inducing defects in the concrete which will decrease durability. It is frequently seen that a concrete specification allows for the use of a relatively wide range of materials, e.g. Portland cement vs. slag cement, angular or rounded aggregate, etc. 2, record 3, English, - rounded%20aggregate
