‘Thermalite Large Format blocks have been specifically designed to complement Thermalite Thin Joint Mortar and offer considerable gains in productivity.
Blocks with a face size of 440 x 430 mm are equivalent to two normal concrete blocks, or twelve bricks, and are available in all standard thicknesses.
Independent tests by a team of Chartered Surveyors have found that the use of Large Format blocks in thin joint construction can lead to at least a 50% time saving, in comparison with the use of aggregate blocks and general use mortar. ‘
