Stacking of concrete blocks
- Fresh concrete blocks should be stored on the levelled ground/below parking area/below a covered area.
- More than 6 blocks should not be stacked one over the other in a single column.
- There should be a minimum of 5 cm gap between two rows. After every row of 25 blocks, there should be a discontinuation. This gap helps the curing water to reach upto the bottom of each column. It also allows circulation of air for drying in a uniform manner, upto the last block of each column.
- For curing, date-wise lots of the blocks should be made. Curing should be done five times for a minimum of 15 days. Boards with the manufacturing date should also be displayed on the day’s lot.
- Blocks should be stacked on a flat face for better stability.
- As far as possible, stock and cure the blocks under covered portion so as to retain the moisture cement.
