Hollow bricks are an Eco-friendly Construction material that is manufactured by recycled waste and materials like coal ash, rice husk, and fly ash. … These bricks are used mostly in partition walls in the building, but they can be used as load-bearing walls as per their compressive strength.
- Hollow bricks are perforated either horizontally or vertically. When compared to other traditional varieties of bricks, hollow bricks overall performance is proven to be very good.
- Hollow bricks enable faster construction as they can be easily handled on the site.
- These bricks absorb very less water hence are environment friendly. Because of its low absorption of water, there are very few chances of efflorescence on the wall’s construction using hollow brick.
- Helps in improving the aesthetic factor of the building structure, and imparts it a better view.
- Hollow bricks are an Eco-friendly Construction material that is manufactured by recycled waste and materials like coal ash, rice husk, and fly ash. It is certified by the Green Building Council of India.
- One of the main functions of hollow bricks is to reduce the dead load of the Structure. These are extremely light in weight than most other variants of bricks. The holes or the pores present in these bricks help in reducing their weight making them extremely lightweight.
- These bricks are used mostly in partition walls in the building, but they can be used as load-bearing walls as per their compressive strength.
- The hollow space of the poles present in the hollow bricks is used to pass the plumbing and electrical wiring – this is not possible in traditional bricks.
- The thermal insulation properties of these bricks help in significantly reducing the heating/cooling effects.
- Hollow bricks add to the architectural aesthetics and give a better view as compared to solid bricks. They are also fire resistant and hence are much safer.
