Industry and News Hollow Concrete Blocks Market | Page 2

Some patterns of hollow concrete blocks are shaped generally like the number eight (8) with
squared-off corners and typically measure 16 inches long by 8 inches tall by 8 inches deep. In
construction sites builders use hollow concrete blocks to construct floors, walls, and the other
structural surfaces inside and outside a home. They are also used to construct footers and
foundations to support a building and evenly distribute the load of the building.
Majority of the hollow concrete block structures are constructed using mortar and also need steel
reinforcement for adding support and strength. The factors that drive the growth of the hollow
concrete blocks market (apart from the benefits mentioned above) are rapid execution of work,
increase in floor area, better insulation properties, decrease in construction cost, and good bonding
of mortar & plaster. Hollow concrete blocks are used for interior walls, panel walls, exterior load
bearing walls, columns, retaining walls, and compound walls.
