Introduction of
Concrete Block
Concrete
blocks typically have holes, which makes them lighter and
easier to handle. In the vertical direction, i.e., in line with the axis of the
holes, they are very strong. They are used for foundation walls, which may be
subjected to very heavy loads. A concrete block is
primarily used as a building material in the construction of walls. It is also called
a concrete masonry unit. A concrete block is one of several precast concrete
products used in construction.
Concert Blocks are lightweight generally
it is used in high rise building to reduce structural load. Concrete blocks are
easy to handle compare to red clay bricks; they are larger in dimension and
superior in quality and most importantly save in time and cost. Concert
blocks are easy to cut as the concert block surfaces are very smooth wall
putty can be directly applying on the surface of the inner wall of the house to
give it the perfect finish before painting.
Introduction of Fly
Ash Bricks
Fly
ash brick is lightweight, but still has good strength in
compression. It is not used for walls that are subjected to the greatest loads,
such as foundation walls or interior load-bearing walls. It is suitable for
light-duty applications.
Fly ash bricks are a
building material, specifically masonry units, containing class C or class F
fly ash and water. Compressed at 28 MPa and cured for 24 hours in a 66 °C steam
bath, then toughened with an air-entrainment agent, the bricks last for more
than 100 freeze-thaw cycles.
While comparing concrete
blocks vs fly ash bricks, there arises confusion in selection of masonry units
for constructing a house. Here we have given comparison between Concrete
blocks, fly ash bricks, to help you make the right choice.
1. General
Concrete
blocks have one or more large holes or cavities which either pass through the
block (open cavity) or do not effectively pass through the block (closed
cavity). They have the solid material between 50 and 75 % of the total volume
of the block calculated from the overall dimensions.
Fly ash
bricks are eco-friendly bricks which are made using fly ash or pulverized fuel
ash. They are also called pulverised fuel ash – lime bricks. They are 100%
solid and they do not have any cavity unlike Concrete Blocks.
2. Raw Material
Concrete
blocks consist of a mixture of cement, aggregates, sand or gravel and water.
Sometimes industrial waste like fly ash, bottom ash etc. are also used in their
manufacturing.
Fly ash
bricks are made from the mixture of fly ash or pulverized fuel ash, cement,
sand, lime and gypsum.
3. Uses
Concrete blocks are used in all type of masonry construction
such as,
a. Exterior load-bearing walls
b. Interior load-bearing walls
c. Curtain walls
d. Partition wall and panel walls
e. Backing to stone, brick, and other facing
f. Fireproofing over a structural member
g. Fire-safe walls around elevators and stairwells
h. Piers, retaining walls, column etc.
Due to
their strength and durability, fly ash bricks are used in various types of
construction for both load bearing and non-load bearing walls. They are also
used for other purposes such as,
a. Raising Infrastructures
b. Factories
c. Warehouse
d. Power plant
e. High rise structures etc.
f. Construction of pavements
g. Tanks, under water works
h. Canal lining
i. Irrigation work
4. Water Absorption
Water
absorption of concrete blocks should not exceed10% of its weight.
Water
absorption of fly ash bricks should not exceed15-20% of its weight. Thus, its
normal water absorption is higher.
5. Cost
A
concrete block might be costlier than a fly ash brick, but if you consider the
overall cost of masonry, it will be low. This is so because it consumes less
mortar.
Fly ash bricks cost are the cheapest masonry
units. Overall cost is more as they require more mortar.
