摘要:
The invention relates to a calcium hydroxide-based construction material in which the main component is calcium hydroxide, referred to as "hydrated lime", which is mixed with an organic and/or inorganic filler in order to produce a structural mass consisting of said basic component and said filler. A predetermined volume of water is added to said structural mass, which is calculated on the basis of the volume of said structural mass and is added in order to produce a paste that is workable and capable of hardening. To ensure that the mixture sets, an additive consisting of at least one powder made from volcanic natural materials is added. The filler is advantageously made from substance chips or fibres, preferably plant substances, such as hemp or wood, and the additive is preferably made of pozzolana. There are two alternative methods for providing said material: the main component, the filler and the additive are initially dry-mixed before the water is added, or the main component and the filler are dry-mixed, the water is added and then the additive is added.
