Elevating Foundations: The Dynamic Role of Cemented Bricks in Construction
Cemented bricks are essential elements of the construction industry. They are more than what they seem to be, as they bear the complete structural load. Therefore, they need to be of top quality, strong, durable, and also affordable to buy and maintain. Cement bricks play a key role in masonry construction. These are-

Industrial revolution’s impact on technological advancement
With the onset of industrial revolution demand for bricks increased rapidly, more and more construction affected demand & supply graph thus resulted in the evolution of concrete/non fired cement bricks. Produced in bulk with pre-quality and durability check is what we called technological advancement. With time change is inevitable, nowadays to meet the upcoming demand-supply ratio people has come up with effective alternates.
The raw material used in making cemented bricks are-
- Fly ash
- Sand/Stone dust
- Ordinary Portland Cement/(Lime+Gypsum)
What we should expect from modern days bricks? If we discuss parameters these few questions hit our mind!
- What are the strength, durability, and maintenance?
- Does it is according to climatic condition?
- Will it support structural load?
- Distribution of load and maintain indoor walls.
These all factors make it a right choice in the construction industry and for more details contact Raj Mineral.
