What is Concrete Block Masonry?

Concrete block masonry utilizes blocks made from a mix of cement, sand, and aggregate, providing a durable and versatile alternative to traditional brick construction. These blocks are ideal for both load-bearing and non-load-bearing walls, making them suitable for a wide range of applications from homes and offices to commercial and industrial buildings

    Applications

    • Load-Bearing Walls:
      Essential for supporting the weight of roofs, floors, and upper stories in residential and commercial structures.

    • Partition Walls:
      Used to divide interior spaces without bearing structural loads, providing privacy and sound separation in offices, schools, and homes.

    • Retaining Walls:
      Ideal for landscaping and soil retention, offering strength and stability on sloped properties. 

    • Basement and Foundation Walls:
      Provide a solid, moisture-resistant base for buildings

    Construction Process

    1. Site Preparation:
      The foundation is leveled and prepared to ensure stability.

    2. Laying Blocks:
      Blocks are set in running bond or stack bond patterns, with mortar applied to both horizontal and vertical joints.

    3. Reinforcement:
      Steel bars and grout may be added within block cavities for added strength, especially in seismic or high-load areas.

    4. Finishing:
      Walls can be left exposed for a modern, industrial look or finished with plaster, stucco, or paint for added aesthetics.

    • Application of high-performance sealants and coatings directly to bare block surfaces

    • Installation of breathable barriers to allow trapped moisture to escape while blocking new water entry
