Diverse types of Cement Blocks for Construction in India

In this contemporary era, buildings are sprawling in all the places even the remotest places of every town. Commercial buildings, schools, health care centres, apartments and so on. In such a scenario construction business is in high demand, to cater and fulfil to such demands.

The basic construction materials required are cement, steel, bricks, sand, ready mix and so on. Any material employed in building construction has to be selected cautiously to ensure the security and longevity of the building. SD conmix is the best in quality when it comes to concrete blocks.

Cement blocks are concrete blocks that are prefabricated materials mainly used to build walls. Like bricks, the blocks are stacked together and joined with a mortar, consisting of cement, sand and water.

Most of the cement blocks are used in the construction of the walls which protect from strong winds, they can also be used for garden walls, planters, foundations of the building and firepits. 

Cement blocks or the concrete blocks are of many types eg 

1 Cement bricks 

2 Aerated autoclaved concrete blocks

3 Hollow concrete blocks  

4 solid concrete blocks 

5 Lintel blocks 

6 Jamb concrete blocks 

7 Concrete pillar blocks 

8 Concrete stretcher blocks 

The full cement bricks look like grey bricks but are typically large they are used to build walls. Aerated autoclaved blocks are preferable because of their light weight and resistance of high degree of sound and temperature resistance. Hollow bricks are usually manufactured using lightweight aggregates with a certain design load depending on where it is used. Solid concrete blocks are denser and bigger than concrete bricks, they are strong and load-bearing in nature. Lintel blocks are used in the preparation of the lintel frameworks. Jamb concrete is made with a shallow groove across the two holes and a deeper groove at one end. They are often used specifically in double-hung windows. Concrete pillar blocks as the name imply are used to build pillars or piers. Concrete stretcher blocks are used to combine masonry units in construction concerning its look. Their faces are laid parallel to the walls face.

Different types of concrete blocks are designed for different places in structure, SD conmix is the best when it comes to concrete blocks.
