It was made in factories using fine aggregate chemicals (rather than coarse aggregate), which creates gas bubbles within it. This method of construction makes it porous and permeable meaning that water ingress can cause the steel reinforcements within it to corrode and also provides it with a lower compressive strength. RAAC was most commonly used in the production of light weight masonry blocks and structural units such as
