What it is
Bricks come in several kinds: burnt clay (country and wire-cut), fly ash, cement or concrete, and AAC blocks. They differ in strength, weight, size accuracy, heat insulation and cost.
Types and key points
- Country (red) bricks: traditional, uneven
- Wire-cut bricks: machine-made, accurate
- Fly ash bricks: uniform and eco-friendly
- Cement bricks and AAC blocks: larger and faster to lay
Why it matters
The wall material affects cost, speed, plaster thickness and how hot rooms get in Chennai summers.
