When you choose to construct an interlock brick house, the amount of cement and sand used can be kept to a minimum. Then the savings will amount to about 30% of the total costs. The only snag is that skilled workers experienced in working with interlock bricks are needed.
Interlock bricks are made by dual compressing a mixture of Laterite soil and ordinary Portland cement or a mixture of crusher dust, ordinary Portland Cement, 6 MM baby metal (aggregate), and water. After 7 days of curing, the blocks are construction-ready. The bricks have high strength and sturdiness and can be used in the construction of walls of houses or compound walls.
Concrete interlocking blocks certainly have an edge over normal bricks as they don’t require plastering! This reduces the construction costs further. Wall putty can be directly applied over the bricks to produce a superfine finish wall construction. These blocks can be used for the construction of high-rise buildings also and can bring in a significant reduction in material handling cost and the labour involved therein.
Pillarless construction for up to two storeys can be achieved using interlocking bricks as they have a high load-bearing capacity. This results in optimized construction costs and saving time.
You can reuse the interlocking bricks! When a building made using interlocking bricks is stripped down, the bricks can be saved without destruction and reused for new construction projects in the future.
Construction of compound walls using interlock blocks will be more cost-effective as we need to use cement mortar only in the first layer and the last layer of the compound wall.
