Hydraform International
The Hydraform Interlocking Soil Block (hydraform block) is an interlocking earth block used in many African countries for construction purposes. The Hydraform block is made from soil cement which is a mixture of soil, cement and water, and is hydraulically compressed to form a high quality interlocking soil block. Soil from the building site can be used to manufacture building blocks. Sandcrete and landcrete are similar materials but are not compressed.
The Hydraform compressed earth block is very popular due to the cost savings that are invloved during the construction process as only around 30% of the structure requires mortar between the blocks. Due to the interlocking nature of the stabilized soil block, unskilled labour can be utilised in construction thereby empowering rural communities and creating jobs.
The blocks interlock top to bottom and front to back. Blocks dimensions are wide, high and long. It weighs approximately . Once blocks are manufactured it is "wet cured" for a period of 14 – 21 days to reach desired strength.〔(Hydraform technology instrumental in creating jobs )〕〔(Salman village resettlement completed )〕〔(Brick maker Hydraform calls for gov'tal support to create more jobs )〕〔(Houses for only N$30 000 )〕〔(Africa Investor - Ai News )〕〔(Standard Digital News - Mobile Site | Kenya :: )〕
