Disadvantages of foam concrete

It is no secret that foam concrete is now at the peak of popularity, it is widely used almost all over the world. The main sphere of its use is the construction of low -rise houses. Such a great popularity of this material is a direct consequence of the fact that it has many advantages. But at the same time it is impossible to deny the fact that foam concrete also has disadvantages. For example, one of the main disadvantages of this material is its insufficiently high bearing capacity. For this reason, foam concrete is strictly forbidden to use during the construction of buildings above the third floor, and in general it is better not to build buildings even above one floor. Recently, the walls of Dnepropetrovsk are often insulated.
