Firstly, \u003cstrong\u003eBaines Masonry\u003c\/strong\u003e blocks should be laid dry to minimize subsequent shrinkage. Additionally, it is important to keep mortar off the face of the blocks and clean off any droppings as work progresses, before the mortar sets. Whenever possible, avoid cleaning down with acid. A comprehensive guide to cleaning concrete masonry is available at \u003cstrong\u003eBaines Masonry\u003c\/strong\u003e, or you can find full technical details on the Concrete Masonry Association website at www.cmaa.com.au.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen ordering, ensure you purchase enough product to complete the project at once to avoid batch variations. Concrete masonry blocks behave differently from clay bricks in terms of moisture movement and temperature changes. To prevent cracks in walls, assuming sound foundations are provided, use control joints, bond beams, and\/or joint reinforcement correctly. The rules for using these elements are detailed in Australian Standard 3700-2011.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eBlocks with a 390x190mm face = 12.5 units per square meter and 2.5 units per linear meter.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTo fill 200mm bond beams, allow 0.013m\u003csup\u003e3\u003c\/sup\u003e of concrete per linear meter of beam.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTo core fill 300mm blocks, allow 1.1m\u003csup\u003e3\u003c\/sup\u003e of concrete per 100 blocks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Australian Treated Pine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45165403275401,"sku":"A0253A","price":6.5,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/7870\/7081\/files\/Besser_Block_300_H-Block.webp?v=1770346803","url":"https:\/\/builderscentre.com.au\/products\/besser-block-300-h-block","provider":"Builders Centre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
