To calculate hourdi blocks in a slab, first determine the total area of the slab you need to cover. Then, find the area of a single hourdi block, which typically has standard dimensions. Divide the total slab area by the area of one hourdi block to get the number of blocks required. Additionally, consider adding a percentage for wastage and cuts during installation.

To attach a granite slab to a concrete block base, first ensure both surfaces are clean and dry. Apply a high-strength construction adhesive, such as epoxy or a specifically formulated stone adhesive, to the concrete block base. Carefully place the granite slab on top, ensuring proper alignment, and press it down firmly. For added stability, you can use mechanical fasteners like stainless steel anchors, if necessary.
