In the development of new composite structural elements based on sedimentary rocks (clays) as inorganic binders and foam composite materials, their physical characteristics are presented for the construction of recipe compositions and the determination of their complex new properties. The role of the components of the compositions, together with organic reinforcing fiber materials such as straw, rice husks and others, basic parameters of the technological regime and other factors for ensuring adequate workability of the prepared composite compositions for obtaining building coatings and elements – bricks and panels for building ecological houses – is considered. The determination of the necessary technological characteristics of the composite mixtures ensures their effectiveness.

Composite structural modifications based on hydraulic inorganic binders and foam glass aggregate fractions were prepared. Formwork moulds were developed for the moulding of composite test bodies using different technological approaches. A series of experimental specimens meeting the requirements for standard laboratory tests were obtained. The role of the technological regimes used in the formation of the structural characteristics and performance of the composites is examined. The existing possibilities for further modification and potential application of the obtained composite materials are analysed.
