ARCHITECTURAL SPECIFICATION & OVERVIEW
About Hollow Block 16 × 8 × 6
Hollow Block 16 × 8 × 6 is part of the Concrete Hollow Blocks range manufactured by Kamad Infratech.
The 6 inch block — the usual choice for external non-load bearing walls and boundary walls where a 4 inch section feels thin.
Same cured, precision-moulded body as the rest of the range, so courses stack true and the wall needs less plaster to come flat.
Enterprise GradeEngineered for large-scale architectural projects
Climate ResilientTested for Indian climate extremes — heat, rain, humidity
Factory PrecisionBatch-controlled production with anti-efflorescence mix design
Sustainable MaterialEco-conscious production with minimal carbon footprint

ALL-WEATHER CERTIFIED
Indian Climate Suitability
Heavy Monsoon Proof 50°C+ UV Resilient Through-Body Color
Produced for Indian exterior exposure — heavy monsoon rainfall, intense summer temperatures reaching the high 40s°C, and severe UV radiation. Colour is through-body rather than surface-applied, ensuring weathering presents as an elegant architectural patina without coating delamination.
STRUCTURAL SPECIFICATION
Limitations & Engineering Limits
Designed specifically as non-load bearing facade cladding, solar screen louvers, or architectural partition masonry. Free-standing perimeter walls exceeding 3.0 meters in total height mandate structural steel or concrete column anchoring ties for wind load stability.
Mandatory: Use 6mm dowel ties every 3rd course on exterior screens.
Hollow Block 16 × 8 × 6 — Installation, Care and Maintenance
SITE EXECUTION MANUAL
Installation Guidance
01
Surface Preparation
Thoroughly clean and level the concrete base beam, lintel, or floor slab prior to first course alignment.
02
Mortar / Adhesive Specification
Use polymer-modified tile adhesive or 1:3 cement-sand mortar matrix maintaining a uniform 8-10mm joint spacing.
03
Alignment & Structural Reinforcement
Check vertical plumb with spirit level. Embed 6mm MS/SS dowel rods every 3rd course into adjacent structural columns for rigid anchoring.
FACILITY MANAGEMENT PROTOCOL
Care & Maintenance
Routine Surface Cleaning
Periodic low-pressure clean water spray is sufficient to remove ambient dust and environmental debris.
Hydrophobic Sealer Protection
Apply a transparent breathable silicone / fluoropolymer sealer every 5 years for enhanced exterior facade stain immunity.
Efflorescence Prevention
Our engineered mix design incorporates anti-efflorescence chemical complexes to neutralize surface salting.
