Ideal uses for the Qomposit
Concrete Masonry Unit are:
All of the above mentioned type of
buildings use a great deal of
electricity in order to heat and cool
their facility, thus using a great deal
of energy. They also drive the cost
onto the taxpayer and / or consumer.
By using the Qomposit Concrete
Masonry Unit, we can not only save
on the utilities used by these
facilities, but also save on the
energy used by them.
Since most of these type of facilities
use standard concrete masonry
units in their building practices
currently, it only makes sense to
make the change to the Qomposit
Concrete Masonry Unit and start
saving tomorrow's energy, today!

| Below are several pictures of a building going up in Beckley, West Virginia. This particular building was being constructed during snowy and rainy weather, but the water didn't seep through the block into the inside of the building. Other block that was used allowed water to seep through and delayed production for drying. |
| The Qomposit Masonry Unit is available in multiple colors and can be "split" for an architectural look. The pictures below are showing the "split" look in the brick red (lower left) and the traditional grey look (lower right). Also, take notice of the stackable symmetry and ability to totally reinforce the walls. |
| Using the tested results from Oakridge Laboratory we can convincingly say that the Qomposit Concrete Masonry Unit gives us one of the best energy efficient cmu blocks available today! |

| Would you like to have over 19R in your walls just by laying a concrete masonry unit? This is possible with the Qomposit Concrete Masonry Unit. We had the QCMU tested at Oakridge National Laboratory in Oakridge, Tennesee and learned that it is possible. ORNL uses an actual "Hot Box" test and the ASHRAE Book of Fundamentals to calculate the "R" value of the QCMU and the result was 19.56R. Here's the calculation from the testing at Oakridge National Laboratory and The ASHRAE Book of Fundamentals: Rins = 5.00 / 0.273 = 18.32 hr-ft -F/BTU Rconc = (11.5 - 5.00) / 5.26 = 1.24 hr-ft - F/BTU RTotal = Rins + Rconc = 18.32 +1.24 = 19.56 hr-ft - F/BTU For a copy of the test results or other information, please feel free to contact us. |
