Chequered tiles are cement tiles or terrazzo tiles with the centre to centre distance of chequers not less than 25 mm and not more than 50 rom, the groves in the chequers being uniform and straight with the depth of grooves not less than 3 mm.
Chequered tiles are the best options for open air spaces. The most suitable places to lay chequered floor tiles are the porch, terrace, balcony and other spaces which are exposed to changing climatic conditions or heavy traffic.
Interlocking Paver Blocks
Interlocking concrete pavers are designed specifically to leave gaps in between each brick – in other words, they do not sit exactly flush to each other. It is this space, paradoxically, that gives the entire structure its strength as soon as these joints are filled with an appopriate joint material, such as sand.
Paver blocks are more environment-friendly as compared to the solid plain surface. Solid surface causes water and chemical runoff that may pollute natural water sources.
AAC Blocks
AAC blocks are a precast, foam concrete, sustainable construction material made from aggregates of quartz sand, calcined gypsum, lime, portland cement, water and aluminium powder. After mixing and moulding, the concrete is autoclaved under heat and pressure and it thus gains its distinctive properties.
Natural Sand
A naturally occurring material with a nominal size of generally 5 millimetre minus. Typically washed during the production process. A wide range of applications including but not limited to: Use in concrete and asphalt manufacturing.
On planet earth sand is a very common unconsolidated sedimentary rock. It is characterized by a particle size between 0.063 and 2.0 mm. The mineral composition can vary extremely. Many occurrences consist of quartz respectively silicon dioxide (SiO2).
