Help to use type of bricks for our house in india

6 years ago

We are being advised to use "cement/concrete" bricks(not concrete blocks) instead of regular clay bricks for our house in north india.I wanted to know about the pros and cons of using concrete bricks.Our basic concern in using clay bricks is the effervescence caused by clay bricks.Our architect is advising against the cement blocks and suggesting cement bricks.So please help with inputs.

my house is also going through the construction stage from past six month's I used clay red bricks instead of using cement blocks & bricks as my architect & structure engineer both adviced red bricks keep 3 to 4 degrees temperature down in summer & plastering of wall is more convenient & long life on red bricks, comparing to cement bricks , cement bricks are easily available nice in size ,shape, strong & sturdy hence there is very low waste comparing to other materials

It's a great way to collect photos of images that you like for your house using the "Ideabook" system. If you haven't designed the house yet, you can share these photos with your architect or designer to give them ideas of what you like. If you are at the point of decorating you can put together an ideabook for each room in the house. You can even ask you family members for their input by having them do their own ideabook. If you have a specific question, you can post it in the "discussions" and you will get opinions and answers from all over the world. It's a great way to design your space.

Beautiful.......You need a traditional craftsman from Portugal to come over to India to help you put it together again. There must be a few traditional skilled craftsmen around. Maybe someone out there will know someone who is willing to live in India for a while.........
