Its 1 cement to 5 sand for most bricks and blocks, 1:3 for engineering bricks.
The foundation is built out of cement blocks instead of poured concrete.
Because in summers the cement blocks stsrt expanding due t o excessive heat, So to stop it we fill pitch betwwen them which hold the blocks tightly and stop them to contract in winters.if there would be continuous expansion and contraction the cemen blocks would have cracks and they would break down.
Concrete blocks are large cement bricks used in construction. The main purpose of concrete blocks is for building foundations, basement walls, exterior and partition walls.
Strength and durability of cement-stabilized laterite hollow blocks made with laterite soils at three different locations in Edo State were studied. To this end, blocks were produced with water content at about the optimum moisture with varying percentages of cement from 3% to 15% at 2% increments and compactive pressures ranging from 3.44 N/mm2 to 17.20 N/mm2. The result showed that for 7% cement content and 13.76 N/mm2 compactive pressure, blocks of strength of at least 2.0N/mm2 at 28 days, could be produced. The blocks showed no features of wear after exposure to rain with weight losses within permissible limits after 12-cycles of wetting-brushing-drying. Cost analysis showed that laterite blocks have 40% cost advantage over similar sandcrete blocks.ADAVANTAGES: Strength • durability • cement • stabilization • laterites
It depends on the ratio of cement in the mix. If it is white then there is no cement in it and it will not bond the blocks together
The artist may choose cement blocks instead of paper because the cement blocks are being used for a special project, the blocks are the preferred medium, or other reasons.
Stone blocks cut so precisely that they did not need cement to hold them together
Mortar is sand cement and water mixed together . Once allowed to dry and set , holds your building blocks, bricks etc together .
mortar is combination of cement,sand that is used to hold together construction types of blocks..
Life without cement will be hard because nothing will be made.also because cement holds things together if something is made it will calmphs
Sometimes cement in poured directly from a cement-truck into a mould at the location of the house and allowed to dry, while other houses are made by stacking 8"x8"x16" cement blocks that are cemented together using a Mortar cement in order to build the shape of the foundation. There are also several other methods available on the market for making a foundation that are less traditional, such as using styrofoam-like blocks.

The answer depends on the size of the cement blocks which are not an international standard.
A heaviness in the legs and arms is often described as the limbs feeling like cement blocks. This can be a symptom or sign of Fibromyalgia.
