Hollow Concrete blocks have void area larger than twenty five percent, they come in

different shapes and sizes. Concrete blocks are example masonry units used in
construction world over. Blocks Factory have various types of precast panels used to
get different shapes and sizes of hollow blocks used in construction works such as
walls of buildings, retaining walls and office buildings.

Hollow building blocks, are famous in the construction industry due to its numerous
benefits that it presents. It is also, readily available and easy to deploy when needed.

8 Advantages of Using Hollow Blocks

Hollow building blocks are embedded with many gains to construction that are too
important to be ignored. Perhaps before you embark on your next construction work,
you may need to consider these benefits before you make that important choice.

1. Rapid Execution of Work

Made from moulds that produce hollow blocks of equal shapes, sizes, and weight, it
is easy to deploy hollow blocks in construction works, all that is needed is to fit the
right block to the right place. Same shape and sizes help to easily assembly them to
form any particular shape that is required in construction job.

2. Highly durable
Hollow building blocks compacted by high pressure and vibration make the blocks very
strong, resilient hardened to severe load and weight.

3. Better Insulation Properties

The air in the hollow of the block, does not allow heat or cold in or out of the building.
No wonder hollow blocks are insulated against heat, dampness and sound. Hollow
blocks keeps house cool in summer and warm in winter.

4. Environmentally friendly
It does not pollute or have any known environment nuisance it constitute to the system.

5. Cost Efficient
It helps in minimizing construction materials used at a construction site, though
minimizes cost of construction.

6. Low Maintenance
To maintain hollow blocks buildings is not expensive, compare to other building
materials that are available.

7. Conserves Space
Construction of thin walls with hollow blocks is very common. So, it helps to reduced
space used in construction and increase the floor area.

8. Bonding of mortar and plaster

Since the surfaces of hollow blocks are rough, this provides for good bonding between
mortar and plaster.
Hollow blocks come first to mind when construction projects that are expected
to be environmentally friendly, durable and cost effective are considered. You
may consider it for your next construction task.
