Construction of interlock block house.
Many of us think is this possible to own a House in this economic situation due to the Pandemic situation, or will it a dream until the end? Our dream home is easily possible within our budget. How? Science Inventions supports the improvement of human life in many ways. It is proved in the field of architecture also. The Interlock Block (INTERLOCK BLOCK) was created with the help of science
· Construction is easily completed.
· Study results show that it is 10 times stronger than ordinary brick.
· The need for construction materials such as cement and sand is very low.
· Man power is also very low.
· The cost can be reduced by approximately 30 percent. That means if our budget is around 10 lakhs, we can build with interlocking stones at approximately 7 lakhs.
· No plastering required. If you do not like the grid design inside, just apply the Wall Putty.
There is no need for curing daily after the building is constructed, as the interlock block is well cured as soon as it is made. This compressed blocks are made with materials used for concrete like sand, cement, fly ash and hardening agents.
Due to the high compression, the strength of the blocks are higher than the normal cement bricks. The cement used for this block is 53 grade.
The excellent curing is given for 10 and more days by submerging the blocks in the water. Just spraying of water for curing will not be sufficient. The initial setting time is speed in this 53 grade cement. So at Gem Blocks the blocks brought for curing with in 10 hours from production.
Interlocking bricks are an improved form of traditional clay bricks. Each brick is designed to seal itself to other surrounding bricks without the use of mortar. Automatic locking is achieved using the Shear key and the lock mechanism. Depending on the design, the shape of the shear key will vary and provide a complimentary lock on the opposite side of the brick. Load transfer is achieved by shear transfer and gravity.
Interlock bricks are compacted and stabilized earth bricks, which contribute to the strength of the structure. They are not usually packed. Interlock bricks come in different sizes and locking systems depending on the supplier.
Are Interlocking Bricks Safe?
As mentioned, it is not safe to use them beyond three floors. Ideally, interlock bricks should not be used on structures with more than two stories.
If you are building a small structure below three floors and earthquake-prone area, it is actually safer to use interlock bricks
Interlocking Bricks for Driveways?
So far, we have discussed the use of interlocking brick for vertical structures. However, interlocking bricks are increasingly used for horizontal surfaces such as driveways.
There are several benefits to using interlocking bricks to smooth your driveway. They look more stylish and good, with more beautiful and diverse designs. They are very easy to repair or replace, and you do not even have to worry about the integrity of a structure like yours if you are building a vertical structure.
Using beautifully designed interlock bricks for your driveway can help you improve the appeal of your home, potentially increasing the value of your property.
Conclusion
Ultimately, whether interlock block bricks are suitable for construction depends on your needs and goals. If you need to save some money to build an apartment building in an earthquake-prone area, they might be a good choice.
On the other hand, if you live in more temperate or colder climates where earthquakes are rare, ordinary bricks are probably your best option. Although they cost a bit more, they offer better resistance to rain and better weather protection
