Answer:
Brickwork:
- Clay Bricks: These bricks are the most commonly used type for construction. They are available in different grades (first class, second class) and sizes, depending on their intended use.
- Concrete Blocks: These blocks, whether solid or hollow, are constructed from concrete. They allow for quicker building compared to clay bricks and are commonly utilized for walls that do not bear any weight.
- Fly Ash Bricks: These bricks, which are made from a mixture of fly ash (a by-product of coal combustion) and other materials, are eco-friendly. They provide excellent thermal insulation and are less weighty compared to clay bricks.
- Mortar: This mixture of cement, sand, and water is used to bind the bricks together. The specific type of mortar utilized is determined by the type of brick and how it will be used.
