CONCRETE BLOCKS
Construction, as we know has come a long way thanks to the technological advancements giving us an upper edge to reinvent many construction materials. These upgrades have provided better strength and rigidity to the materials prolonging their age.
One such advancement is Hollow Concrete Blocks. These have been inspired by the idea of providing heat and electrical insulation in buildings. As the name suggests, their core element is concrete and they are hollowed out from the middle.
These blocks are available in the following sizes:
- 39 X 19 X 30 cm ( standard size )
- 39 X 19 X 20 cm
- 39 X 19 X 10 cm
Apart from imparting insulation, their smaller size and hollow middle allow more room space. Furthermore, the blocks are pre-cast, making their surface smooth and removing the need for plastering.
In order to use these blocks in construction, the overall length and height of the wall are fixed accordingly so that a single block is used.
Hollow blocks are replacing the traditional use of bricks and stones, hence proving to be economic.
