Title:	Monolithic lightweight concrete masonry for multi-storey apartment buildings / Geschosswohnungsbau mit monolithischem Mauerwerk aus Leichtbeton
Abstract:	Affordable living space has become one of the main talking points in Germany next to the threat of climate change. The SMEs of the German lightweight concrete industry offer regional masonry solutions for detached, semi-detached, and terraced houses as well as multi-storey apartment buildings. Particularly in densely populated urban centres, the need for multi-storey apartment buildings arises constantly. In the following the performance of monolithic lightweight concrete masonry will be described and compared with the relevant requirements for multi-storey apartment buildings. It will be demonstrated that masonry with supposedly low compressive strength can still fulfil all requirements. Of particular significance here are the external wall-slab junctions.
