Advantages of CLC blocks in Construction

Light in Weight

CLC blocks range in density from 600 to 800 Kg/cum. This costs almost three times as little as the standard clay or fly ash bricks.

Reduced Construction Cost

When CLC blocks are utilized in construction, the overall dead load of the structure is reduced. House owners can save money on expensive construction materials like cement and steel by optimizing the design appropriately.

Eco friendly

Materials like fly ash and other industrial wastes are used to make CLC blocks. There are no toxic effluents released during the CLC block production process that could influence the ground, water, or air.

Sound and Thermal Insulation

CLC Blocks are good for insulating against heat and sound. As a result, the energy used to heat and cool homes is reduced, which lowers the cost of power for homeowners.

Lower Water Absorption

The water absorption of CLC blocks is significantly less than that of other materials because they contain air spaces that are not connected to one another. This contrasts far better than concrete, which absorbs water to the tune of 50% to 80%, and regular brick. The reduced water absorption of these blocks will aid in minimizing wall fractures.

Fire Protection

Blocks made of foam concrete are fire resistant. With a wall that is only 100mm thick and has a density of 1000 kg/m3, it can withstand a fire for 4 hours while still transmitting heat without releasing any poisonous gases.

Ease to Handling

Construction costs are reduced since CLC blocks are lightweight and simple to handle and install. They also use less cement and sand for bonding during construction.
