  1. I think the writter is right our forests are getting over & over each & every day due to use of burnt bricks so lets resort to sustainable soil blocks to preserve the vegetation

  2. Waterproofing really essential to avoid moisture-related issues. It assured that the home is safe from moisture and water damage. Thanks for the lovely content.

  3. I would go for blocks coz I look upto durability. My great grandfather ‘s house was built with blocks 100+ years back but its still very strong

  4. you are very right on that if you are not minding the cost and focusing on durability. however i would like to see the lab reports for the stabilized soil blocks to make a final comparison.

  5. Barney23-this is an opinion. The writer is not a native English speaker. We should give him the benefit of the doubt.

  6. CMU are much stronger if constructed with the right proportion of sand, cement, water and gravel, in addition to using the adequate rebar ties and filling the cavities with mortar as needed. It’s a much better method than the mud bricks
