Concrete Hollow Blocks
It is classified as bearing and non-bearing
blocks. Load bearing blocks are those whose
thickness ranges from 15cm to 20cm and used to
carry load aside from its own weight. Non-bearing
blocks on the other hand, are block which are
intended for wall partitions, fences or dividers
carrying it own weight whose thickness ranges from
7.5cm to 10 cm.

Tie Wire
Gauge number 16 galvanized wire is commonly used as
tie wire for steel bar intersections and splicing joints. Ordering tie
wire is not by feet nor by meter length but in kilograms or roll.
One roll is equivalent to 45 kg or approximately 2,358 meters at
53 meters per kilograms.
The length of each tie wire depends upon the size of the bars to be
tied on. It is cut into length ranging from 25 cm to 40 cm long for
small and medium size bar folded at the center depending on the
reinforcement bar diameter. For larger bars, the length of ties
varies depending upon the convenience of the steel man.
