What is heavier a concrete block or a brick?
Concrete block.
How do you test the psi rating of a concrete hollow block and where can you test it?
by using the universal testing machine, you can get the actual max load needed to fracture the hollow block and by using the formula, Compressive strength =load(lb)/Areaofcrosssection(in2) u can get the psi rating..
What does an 8 x 10 x 16 concrete block weigh Is there a difference between a concrete block a concrete cinder block?
It weighs 59 lbs. There is a difference between a "real" cinder block and a concrete block. A cinder block uses cinders--ash from the burning of coal--as its aggregate. Concrete blocks are made from concrete. Concrete block is far stronger than is cinder block, and some jurisdictions prohibit the use of cinder block. The only justification for cinder block is that it weighs less than concrete block, which is important if the ground you're building on isn't strong enough to support a heavy structure. This justification has gone away, because now you can buy concrete block made from expanded-shale aggregate that's as light as cinder block and as strong as standard-weight concrete masonry.
What are the classification of hollow concrete block?
classification of concrete blocks
What is the Method of work for Concrete Masonry Block construction?
what is the weight of concrete block work per cubic meter.
How thick a concrete wall would be needed to give the same insulating value as 3 and a half inches of fiberglass?
Poured concrete has an R value of about 0.08/inch. Fiberglass batt has an R value of about 3.14/inch (blown fiberglass wall insulation is about 3.2/inch). From these values we can calculate that the equivalent insulating thickness of concrete would be about 3.5x3.14/0.08 = 137.4 inches. Note that concrete blocks have a somewhat better insulating value due to the incorporated air pockets. A 4" concrete block has an R value of about 0.2/inch An 8" concrete block has an R value of about 0.15/inch A 12" concrete block has an R value of about 0.1/inch

What is the difference between a concrete block and a brick block?
A concrete block is made from concrete, a brick block is made from brick. They are two different building materials. Both have their respective advantages and disadvantages.

How high is a concrete block wall that is 18 blocks high?
A concrete block is normally 8 inches high so that an 18 concrete block wall is 12 feet high.
What is the fire rating of 8 inch cinder block?
2 hours if unfilled or partially filled. 4 Hours if filled. Based upon a standard 60/40 blend of gravel and pumice aggregates in the concrete block mix
