    Porotherm bricks are horizontally or vertically perforated clay bricks made from natural clay, coal ash, rice husk, and granite slurry. They are manufactured in various sizes, most commonly 400x200x200 mm. Advantages include good strength, thermal insulation, high durability, cost-effectiveness, and environmental friendliness while disadvantages are inability to be used for huge structures due to density and potential for salt damage due to water absorption.
