Analysis of Heat Transfer Phenomena inside Concrete Hollow Blocks
Journal of Building Material Science, 2022 During both hot and cold seasons, masonry walls play an important role in the thermal performance between the interior and the exterior of occupied spaces. It is thus essential to analyze the thermal behavior at the hollow block’s level in order to better understand the temperature and heat flux distribution in its structure and potentially limit as ...

Investigative Study on the Properties of Hollow Concrete Blocks
International Journal of Innovative Research in Computer Science & Technology, 2022 The utilization of workmanship structures is as yet broad all through the world. Hollow concrete blocks have supplanted customary bricks in late development as a result of the upsides of higher bearing limit, farmland insurance, and energy protection [1].
