Classic H blocks

Four ranges of H

  • 4 basic H blocks: without insulation and 15 to 19 cm of concrete
  • 4 standard H blocks: with insulation and 15 cm of concrete
  • 4 H blocks (HT): with insulation and 11 cm of concrete
  • 5 structural H blocks (HS): with insulation and 16 or 18 cm of concrete
Nomenclature of H blocks

The special blocks are available for all these types of block.

Basic H blocks

The basic blocks have no insulation and 15 to 19 cm of concrete.
