Abstract
This project is focused on the design of a student residence building using aerated concrete in Nazarbayev University, Astana, Kazakhstan. The shortage of residential places on the campus is one of the primary problems of the university. Thus, the design of the residence building for master students by DC Group is studied in this paper. Major part of the worldwide energy is consumed by residential and commercial buildings. Because of low thermal conductivity and light weight compared to normal concrete, aerated concrete is proposed in order to provide proper thermal insulation and prevent significant heat loss. Moreover, the project includes obtaining own mixture design through laboratory experiments, where aerated concrete blocks will be casted and tested for both mechanical and thermal properties.
