A system includes a saw comprising at least one saw blade for sawing at least one body of aerated concrete into sheets of core material having opposing major surfaces, at least one face layer supply, and a conveyor for advancing the sheets of core material along a path of travel as at least one face layer is secured thereto from the at least one face layer supply. The system may further include a shuttle for repetitively advancing the at least one body of aerated concrete past the at least one saw blade to saw successive sheets of core material. The shuttle, in turn, may comprise a car for carrying the at least one body of aerated concrete, a track for guiding the car, and at least one actuator for moving the car along the track. The saw blade may extends in a substantially horizontal direction. Accordingly, the saw may further comprise a vertical indexer for vertically indexing the at least one saw blade to saw successive sheets of core material. In other words, the saw can be indexed downward as each successive sheet is cut.
