Many owners of private houses in the improvement of the territory of the house adjacent to the house give preference to paving slabs. If there are many other coatings, it is she who is very popular.
One option is paving cast tiles. It is made according to a fairly simple technology. The concrete casting method makes it possible to produce products with a neat appearance with a flat surface. Recently, the manufacture of upholstered furniture to order by specialists is often carried out.
The tile consists of movable concrete, the mass fraction of cement in which is large enough. It is easy to stain this material, and also give the required texture. Its main disadvantage is a small period of operation, especially with high loads.
The reason lies in the large number of high -mass cement, which includes the material. Also, cast products are abrasion in a short time. With an increase in frost resistance and moisture absorption of the material, its period of use increases. Paving slabs should have frost resistance not less than F-100. Speaking of cast tiles, it does not meet these requirements. The material has low resistance to negative temperatures, which violates GOST standards.
