When you start to build a new house, one of the biggest decisions you need to make is choosing between EPS Cement Sandwich Panel and traditional clay bricks as your main wall material. Traditional bricks have been used in construction for thousands of years, but they have many inherent disadvantages that cannot be ignored in modern building projects. First of all, the construction speed of brick walls is extremely slow, a skilled worker can only build a few square meters of wall per day, which makes the whole construction period very long. The total weight of brick walls is also very heavy, which requires you to spend more money on a stronger building foundation to support all the extra load. On the other hand, EPS Cement Sandwich Panel is much lighter, and the installation speed is more than 5 times faster than traditional brick wall building. This can save you a huge amount of labor cost and shorten your construction time by months. The heat insulation performance of EPS Cement Sandwich Panel is far better than solid clay bricks. A 100mm thick EPS Cement Sandwich Panel has the same thermal insulation effect as a more than 500mm thick solid brick wall, which means you can get much better energy saving effect with much thinner wall thickness. Thinner walls also give you more usable indoor space inside the same total building footprint. For a 200 square meter house, using EPS Cement Sandwich Panel can bring you more than 10 square meters of extra usable area compared to using traditional brick walls. In terms of earthquake resistance, the integrated structure of EPS Cement Sandwich Panel is also much safer than brick walls, which are easy to collapse during strong earthquakes. When you calculate the total cost over the entire life cycle of the house, EPS Cement Sandwich Panel turns out to be much more cost effective than traditional bricks, because it saves you money on foundation work, labor, energy bills and long term maintenance.
