With clay bricks, you need to get the heat in the kiln up to a minimum of 1,100 degrees Celcius for about 6 hours to get the brick to fire properly. Short of that will result in a brick that crumbles in the weather. How do I know this? Having worked in the brick industry for 30 odd years... one tends to learn a few things from different sources! Just as an alternative, am looking to start making the CSEB in Australia. But, will used sand instead of soil for the bricks, but may use soil once established. Am looking to make my own press off a 50 tonne hydraulic jack, worked on a lever system to get some serious pressure on the bricks in the moulds. By getting some serious leverage, this should do wonders for the compression of the bricks!
Make a better interlocking brick, make a grove on the exterior and interior to spray on cement and insulation foam. Then make a wooden exterior in front to make it more insulated. Then drive a truck into it, to see if it holds
Yes you can use but there are some precautions you have to take during construction of the walls. If you want to know just message me on Instagram @civilogy
Sir, durability is much better compared to conventional , after laying every 5 course interlocking brick you need to pour mortar in the holes, you can include 8mm rebar in intervals in the holes which makes it more durable and earthquake resistance
Where can I procure the interlocking compressed earth brick making machine here in India...? Is it available in automatic version to produce many bricks an hour/ day..!?..
Yes they are available. If you want you can order from Indiamart.com There were plenty of manufacturers. You can see all specifications, like automated or not etc...
Because if there are any water leakages then these blocks will absorb more water than normal bricks, so swelling happens inside the block and further fails.
Has BIS of India brought-out any Code of standard for Interlocking block masonry design? If your answer is YES, What is the specific code number? Request reply.
There are Lot showing such bricks, but none showing how strong they can stand. Since these bricks were not burned, their strength cannot compare with the normal burned bricks.
There are also some burnt bricks in the market. The shape which decides interlocking capability. So you can burn the bricks making the shape suitable for interlocking.
It can be used for framed structures upto any level. But for load bearing structures you can go up to two storey. After two storeys you have to consult structural engineer 👍
