Abstract

The project includes the analysis, design and estimates of structure, comparing between autoclave aerated concrete and conventional brick in the form of steel consumptions. Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) is a lightweight concrete building material cut into masonry blocks or formed larger planks and panels. This work compares reinforced concrete design using autoclave aerated concrete and conventional brick as a construction material, as the weight of autoclave aerated concrete is much lesser than the conventional brick, using this the weight of infill wall on beams, columns, footings can be reduced if conventional bricks replace by AAC block and simultaneously reinforced steel can be saved.
