CLC Bricks comparison with Red Bricks

How we compare CLC bricks with red bricks when we meet customer ?

If we take One CLC Brick with the size of 6*8*24, which equals 10.6 Red bricks.
One cubic meter area covers 55 CLC Bricks of above size or 560 Red Bricks.

The market price now for CLC Bricks is 3200 Rs per each cubic meter and Red bricks market price starts from minimum Rs. 2440 to 3500 and it varies depend upon quality and city to city.

So the question comes from customer immediately is why I spend more money for CLC bricks?

Here is the answer
Take this example:
1 unit wall brick construction with CLC and Red brick

1) clc bricks for 1 unit wall required around 55 bricks
2) red bricks for 1 unit wall comes around 560 bricks

3) quantity of cement and sand requires for mortar 1 unit wall with CLC
cement : 1 bag cement
sand : 4 bags sand
price : 210 Rs for cement
140 Rs for sand
----------------------------------
Total 350 Rs/-
-----------------------------------
4) quantity of cement and sand requires for mortar 1 unit wall with Red bricks
cement : 2.5 bag cement
sand : 10 bag sand
price : 525 Rs cement
350 Rs for sand
----------------------------------
Total 875 Rs /-
-----------------------------------
5) Plastering for wall constructed with CLC Bricks:
half inch plastering is Enough
Cement : 1.5 bag cement
Sand : 6 bag sand
Price : 315 Rs for cement
210 Rs for sand
----------------------------------
Total 525 Rs/-
-----------------------------------
6) Plastering for wall constructed with Red bricks:
1.5 inches plastering is needed
Cement : 3.5 bag cement
Sand : 14 bag sand
Price : 435 Rs for cement
490 Rs for sand
----------------------------------
Total 925 Rs/-
-----------------------------------

Total cost for plastering and motor joints For clc bricks.
350 + 525 = 875 Rs. Plus cost of CLC 3200 i.e. total 4075 per cubic meter.

Total cost for plastering and motor joints For red bricks.
875 + 925 = 1800 Rs. Plus cost of Red bricks 2500 i.e.,total 4300 per cubic meter.

So at the end of the 1 unit wall construction the price we are spending for red bricks is more than wall made with CLC bricks, apart from that contractor can construct the building less time than red brick construction.

Customer can happy with the advantages mentioned earlier post.

Note : The above calculation we are giving for construction a building with CLC its varies cities and cities and place to place.

Benefits of CLC Bricks

Light weight
Being light weight, Sri Sai CLC bricks reduces the load on foundation and structures which results substantial saving in steel and cement.

Lower water absorption
This closed cell structure of Sri Sai CLC bricks reduces water absorption, So, no more damp spots on the walls.
Thermal insulation
Superior thermal insulation of Sri Sai CLC bricks makes it comfortable for the occupants. It results in lower electricity cost due to reduced air- conditioning loads.
Lower labour and material costs
Decrease in number of joints and accurate dimensions of bricks result in reduced cement mortar, plastering and labour.

Increased carpet area
Optimum width results in increased carpet area when compared to brick walls.
Quick and easy assembly
Being larger in size, Sri Sai CLC bricks takes less time in construction process and makes it simpler.
Superior sound insulation
Acoustic properties of Sri Sai CLC bricks are superior compared to other walling materials.
Ecological stability
Sri Sai CLC bricks are eco-friendly Blocks. No Green house gases are emitted during the manufacturing process. Valuable top soil is also not consumed.
Superior fire safety
Sri Sai CLC bricks offer superior fire safety.
Realiability and quality constistency
State of the art ensures that Sri Sai CLC bricks have constistent dimensions & strength.
Availability through all seasons
Sri Sai CLC bricks is available all year round; even during monsoons when the availability of the fire clay bricks is not consistent.

What is CLC Bricks


CLC is called as Cellular Light weight Concrete and it is also called as Foam Concrete. CLC Bricks are competitive with bricks in pricing and offer significant savings for finished structures. Savings in construction cost can be as much as 18% when using CLC Bricks, as compared to brick. Cellular Light Weight Concrete (CLC) is a version of lightweight concrete that is produced like normal concrete under ambient conditions. It is produced by initially making slurry of Cement, Sand (optional), Fly-Ash & Water, which is further mixed with the addition of pre-formed stable foam. The Concrete slurry is poured into assembled moulds of bricks. The foam imparts free flowing characteristics to this slurry due to ball bearing effect of foam bubbles enabling it to easily flow into all corners and compact by itself in the moulds without requiring any kind of vibration or compaction. Good Curing gives strength and dimensional stability to Bricks.

Consistent quality of Sri Sai CLC Bricks have brought ample of advantages to the modern construction

Lower weight ensures easy handling. Offers superior nailability and chase cutting features as compared to hollow blocks and concrete blocks. This technology is being widely used throughout the world. Over a hundred thousand apartments, houses, schools, commercial complexes, hospitals, hotels, industrial structures etc.
