Concrete Blocks for Your Construction Requirements<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Concrete blocks are the most common building material in the west. Almost all modern structures require concrete blocks to derive structural strength and other qualities. High-rise buildings require extensive load-bearing capabilities to sustain extremities. Concrete blocks have become an ideal choice in such cases.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The housing market in Bangladesh is booming. Many real estate developer companies are working day and night to build high-rise structures for housing. Dhaka is shifting its trend from building traditional six-storied buildings to twenty-storied or more. Traditional red bricks reduce the pace of construction work and are not suitable for high-rise buildings. So, the trend of using concrete blocks is rising in Bangladesh.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To purchase concrete blocks, you need to have a practical sense of the characteristics, performance benefits, and latest design guidance for concrete blocks in construction. Each type of block will offer its benefits if used appropriately. There are many<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/mirconcreteblock.com\/blog\/types-of-concrete-blocks-preferred-in-modern-constructions\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">different types of concrete blocks<\/span><\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in the market. The following section will discuss what kind of concrete blocks you should purchase.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Aggregate-Blocks\"><\/span><b>Aggregate Blocks<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These blocks are available in a wide range of densities and compressive strengths. Different densities of aggregate concrete blocks are grouped into ultra-lightweight, lightweight, and dense categories. All concrete blocks are made from cement and add on different elements to alter the properties. Ultra-lightweight and lightweight blocks contain granulated or foamed blast-furnace slag, expanded clay, pumice, shale, and fly ash collected from various coal-based power stations. As the density increases, the load-bearing capacity or the strength of the block also increases. The first two blocks are used in internal and external walls and applications that do not require special load-bearing capacities. <a href=\"https:\/\/mirconcreteblock.com\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Lightweight blocks<\/span><\/a> can provide lower levels of thermal conductivity due to the increased percentage of air. So, these blocks can offer better thermal insulation compared to denser blocks. Aggregate blocks typically weigh in the range of 8.5 \u2013 20 KG and widths of 100mm. On the other hand, denser aggregate concrete blocks offer higher compressive strength, better acoustic performance, greater thermal mass, and low air permeability.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-119 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/mirconcreteblock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mir-solid-concrete-block.jpg\" alt=\"mir solid concrete block\" width=\"680\" height=\"272\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mirconcreteblock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mir-solid-concrete-block.jpg 680w, https:\/\/mirconcreteblock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mir-solid-concrete-block-300x120.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Source:<\/span><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mirconcreteblock.com\/product\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mir Concrete Block | Concrete Block in Bangladesh<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Aircrete-Blocks\"><\/span><b>Aircrete Blocks<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aircrete blocks offer the lightest option in the concrete blocks category. These blocks are made from cement, lime, sand, fly ash, and water. Aluminum powder is later added, which reacts with the lime to form tiny bubbles, causing the mixture to expand into a cake-like figure. After the mixture is partially set, they are cut into concrete block pieces.<\/span> <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mirconcreteblock.com\/blog\/how-the-concrete-is-cured-by-steam-at-atmospheric-pressure\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The concrete is then cured by steam<\/span><\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to achieve its desired strength. The blocks&#8217; lightweight nature allows them to perform well in heat insulation by reducing heat loss through external walls and junctions. These blocks are used in places like aggregate blocks. However, its lightweight nature does not make it a good option in places where high compressive strength is required. The general standard is 9N\/mm<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">or less for Aircrete blocks. These blocks are easy to work with and handle on construction sites.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The lightweight nature of Aircrete blocks makes it possible to manufacture large-format blocks, which can maintain a high margin of dimensional accuracy. This property can enable thin mortar joints, around 2 \u2013 3mm, using a special kind of adhesive. Such adhesives can start setting in under half an hour and reach full strength in only 2 \u2013 3 hours. Conventional mortar applications require a minimum of 24 hours before an additional load can be applied. These features allow an excellent pace in construction works, enabling large projects to be completed within a constrained time frame. The thermal characteristics of large-format blocks are the same as for standard Aircrete blocks. However, thinner mortar joints can cause a reduction in thermal bridging compared to conventional mortar joints.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Foundation-Blocks\"><\/span><b>Foundation Blocks<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Foundation blocks are specially designed concrete blocks that are used below ground levels and provide a speedy and well-situated means to construct a base for supporting cavity and solid walls, beams, and block floors. As concrete blocks are precast block elements, the foundation work can be completed within a short time if they are used. Foundations blocks are manufactured both in Aircrete and Aggregate block types so that they are resistant to moisture, freeze\/thaw, and sulfate attacks. If Aircrete types are used, compressive strength gets limited in the range of 3.6 \u2013 7.3N\/mm<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Lower-storied buildings can opt for these blocks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the other hand, high strength like 10.4 N\/mm<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> can also be achieved but only through aggregate blocks. Foundation walls are manufactured in various sizes that can span cavity walls that differ in widths. Some foundation blocks can be used above ground for solid wall construction.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Concrete-Coursing-Blocks\"><\/span><b>Concrete Coursing Blocks<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is a particular type of block used for infilling small areas in walls to maintain a consistent level while laying blocks. These blocks are typically reduced in height, around 65mm. These come in very handy when doors or windows are placed in a wall. So, using coursing blocks, lintels above windows and doors can be leveled according to the rest of the wall&#8217;s height. Coursing blocks are suitable for almost all types of construction works, above or below damp-proof level, helping maintain a consistent height, and reducing the need for cutting blocks on site. For adjustment purposes, large concrete blocks are usually cut into required lengths, which can increase the cost as concrete cutting machines are required and introduce wastage of some blocks. So, concrete coursing blocks can help in such situations. These blocks are produced in Aircrete and Aggregate formats. Proper block types should be carefully picked to match the wall&#8217;s general build properties.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hollow-Blocks-Aggregate-Type\"><\/span><b>Hollow Blocks (Aggregate Type)<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hollow aggregate blocks contain cavities or holes inside them, passing from top to bottom. These blocks come in a variety of sizes and strengths. Hollow blocks usually carry 30 \u2013 40% of the weight of a similar-sized solid concrete block. These blocks are widely used in the construction industry for general purpose works. It is easy to work with, making it a popular option for commercial works. One of the significant benefits of using hollow blocks is their incredible strength when reinforced with concrete fillings or steel rebar. These blocks can be used above and below damp-proof concrete levels.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-120 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/mirconcreteblock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mir-hollow-concrete-block-in-bangladesh.jpg\" alt=\"mir hollow concrete block in bangladesh\" width=\"680\" height=\"269\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mirconcreteblock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mir-hollow-concrete-block-in-bangladesh.jpg 680w, https:\/\/mirconcreteblock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mir-hollow-concrete-block-in-bangladesh-300x119.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Source:<\/span><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mirconcreteblock.com\/product\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mir Concrete Block | Concrete Block in Bangladesh<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cellular-Blocks-Aggregate-Type\"><\/span><b>Cellular Blocks (Aggregate Type)<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These blocks have cavities like hollow blocks. However, the cavities are blind, so they do not pass entirely through the blocks. It allows a full mortar bed on one face, beneficial for construction works. Cellular blocks can be used in one or both leaves of cavity walls. It can serve the purpose of a lower-weight alternative to solid aggregate blocks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Furthermore, the reduced weight in cellular blocks does not take away its strength. It can perform similarly solid aggregate blocks. Other applications of cellular blocks include internal partitions and infill walling for framed structures. These blocks can achieve strengths from 2.9 \u2013 10.4N\/mm<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Facing-Blocks\"><\/span><b>Facing Blocks<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These blocks are also known as decorative blocks. These are available in various colors and textures for both internal and external usage. The specialty of these blocks is their decorative properties without compromising in strength. These blocks have become quite popular in decorating modern living spaces. Commercial places or office places use these blocks to appeal to customers. They are incredibly well-suited for projects that require color consistency and textures.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Important-Concrete-Block-Properties-You-Should-be-Aware-of\"><\/span><b>Important Concrete Block Properties You Should be Aware of<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Concrete blocks are available in different composite materials. The composition and manufacturing process determine the compressive strength of concrete blocks. They are also available in different sizes. Before purchasing concrete blocks, you must make sure what kind of blocks you require for your project. These properties of concrete blocks can determine the quality of your living standard inside the space.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Block-Strength\"><\/span><b>Block Strength<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Concrete block strength is an essential factor to decide before beginning project work. If you plan to build one or two-story buildings, concrete blocks with a compressive strength of around 3 N\/mm<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are enough for cavity walls&#8217; inner leaf. If a three-story building with a story height of more than 2.7m is considered, blocks with compressive strength of 7.3 N\/mm<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or more are required for specific parts of the structure. However, depending on your project&#8217;s structural design and purpose, compressive strength requirements can change significantly. Sometimes different qualities of concrete blocks are required more than strength, such as resistance to chemical attacks. Building projects near the seashore can bring a whole new set of challenges to the table. So, it would help to determine what kind of block strength is suitable for your project.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Block-Sizes\"><\/span><b>Block Sizes<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Concrete blocks are now available in the market in a variety of sizes. But you can purchase standard-size concrete blocks suitable for general purpose construction work that measures 440mm x 100mm x 215mm. For better understanding, you can compare this height with three red bricks and length as two red bricks with 10mm thickness of mortar joints. Furthermore, you can purchase alternative sizes according to your requirements. There are some alternatives readily available in the market that can improve the productivity of construction sites. There are Aircrete blocks with larger face sizes light enough to be handled manually, improving the pace and quality of construction work. Smaller-sized dense blocks can be used where manual handling is the only option.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Insulation\"><\/span><b>Insulation<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The insulation property of concrete blocks will heavily influence how you live inside your home. Insulation properties depend on the density and brand of your concrete block. By reducing the density in concrete blocks, manufacturers can drastically reduce the thermal conductivity. Thus, increasing the heat-insulation properties of the concrete blocks. It is an essential factor in places where it gets scorching during the summer, like in Bangladesh. Air conditioners can increase electricity bills during the summer seasons if your home is not protected against the heat. Furthermore, good insulation properties keep your home warm and comfortable during the winter season.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Acoustic-Performance\"><\/span><b>Acoustic Performance<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The acoustic performance or outside noise can enter your living space depending on the concrete block structure, manufacturing method, block composition, the junction between different blocks, and the density of concrete blocks. If your property is near a busy street where you plan to build your home, keeping the acoustic performance of concrete blocks in mind can immensely impact how you live in your home. Noise pollution is one of the significant concerns in Bangladesh that is responsible for degrading the quality of life for many residents near streets, mainly in Dhaka. The unregulated honking of horns adds to an unbearable amount of cacophony in the city. Building homes with concrete blocks can somewhat mitigate these alarming issues.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All solid materials have a natural frequency of vibration. If a sound strikes the wall with the same frequency, the wall starts to vibrate in sympathy with the sound, translated on the opposite side. Light or thin partition walls suffer from noise pollution more. If the wall is made with denser material like concrete blocks, the natural frequency of that will be very low. So, only lower frequency sounds will transmit through the wall. As a result, concrete blocks play a significant role in reducing sound transmission.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Resistance-to-Fire\"><\/span><b>Resistance to Fire<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fire-related incidents have tripled over the last 22 years in Bangladesh, according to<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.dhakatribune.com\/bangladesh\/nation\/2019\/02\/26\/fire-incidents-in-bangladesh-triple-over-22-years\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dhaka Tribune<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. So, making your home safe and resistant to fire is a crucial aspect of living in the city. You can check the quality of fire resistance before purchasing concrete blocks. Fire resistance properties vary significantly due to the choice of manufacturing material and density.
