Q: The use of hollow pre cast concrete blocks in construction results in:
  • A. reducing dead weight of structure
  • B. increasing ductility of structure
  • C. increasing load bearing capacity of structure
  • D. increasing cost of structure
Correct Answer: Option A - Generally, Hollow Blocks have core area greater than 25% of total area, it is used in masonry structure for good insulating property against sound heat and moisture. • Use of hollow pre-cast concrete blocks in construction results in reducing that weight of structure.
A. Generally, Hollow Blocks have core area greater than 25% of total area, it is used in masonry structure for good insulating property against sound heat and moisture. • Use of hollow pre-cast concrete blocks in construction results in reducing that weight of structure.
