CHB Laying: The Basics of Common Masonry in the Philippines
Concrete Hollow Blocks are a common building material used in the Philippines. It's used to lay out the "structural skeleton" of a building to be reinforced later on by beams and columns. We mainly use concrete Hollow Blocks or CHBs for modular use, price, and portability. Walls built with CHB have the following adva…
