  1. Due to high strength, practically no breakage during transport and use.
  2. Due to uniform size of bricks mortar required for joints and plaster reduces almost by 50%.
  3. Due to lower water penetration seepage of water through bricks is considerably reduced.
  4. gypsum plaster can be directly applied on these bricks without a backing coat of lime plaster.
  5. These bricks do not require soaking in water for 24 hours. Sprinkling of water before use is enough.
Disadvantages
  1. Mechanical bonding strength is weak. But this can be rectified by adding marble waste.
  2. Limitation of size. Only modular size can be produced. Large size will have more breakages.

How do you build miniature Hadrians wall with foam bricks?

Foam bricks can be laid as you would lay the bricks used to build houses. As the foam bricks are very light, and easily knocked over, it would be an advantage to glue the bricks with PVA as they are laid (the same as using mortar to bond bricks).
