SNI 8640:2018 and Lightweight Blocks in Indonesia: AAC, CLC and Quality Requirements
Indonesia's SNI 8640:2018, 'Spesifikasi bata ringan untuk pasangan dinding,' is an active national standard covering requirements and test methods for lightweight concrete masonry units used in walls.
Engineering Considerations
The standard covers lightweight blocks produced by chemical aeration, preformed foam and lightweight aggregates. It distinguishes autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) from cellular lightweight concrete (CLC), which is produced by adding preformed foam from a foam generator to a prepared mortar mix.
For investors planning a lightweight block factory in Indonesia, the standard is relevant to product quality and testing, but it is not a substitute for project-specific engineering. Raw materials, product dimensions, density class, curing process and factory quality control still need to be defined.
Project Application
HENGDE recommends confirming the target product and applicable local requirements before the production process and equipment configuration are finalized.
