February 6, 201214 yr Hi guys is this kind of cinder blocks available in Bangkok been to a few hardwares shop and yet to find one.
February 6, 201214 yr Nope. The normal kind you get in LOS is much slimmer and if you look at it wrong, it will crumble. I'd post a pic, but all you have to do is go anywhere and look at a local built house to see it. And don't give it a kick, you likely punch a hole.
February 6, 201214 yr The Thai version is indeed smaller and more brittle, but guess what, it not really matter, because you can use a layer of surface bonding cement (SBC). When you kick that you have a broken toe. The Thai version with big pores has a lot of surface the SBC can bond with.
February 6, 201214 yr They are available in Thailand as I nicked borrowed one from a building site in Chonburi several years ago and still have it here at my home.The closest I got to the producer was Chonburi concrete.
February 6, 201214 yr Author thanks for the response guys. i am not using for building purpose but for landscaping. the smaller version where are available at most of the material shops would not fit what i would like to do with it. any idea where i should look for it ? build a wooden mould and DIY ?
February 6, 201214 yr Have a chat with Conburi concrete as they produced them several years ago.The one I have at my home is 14 cm thick and made of concrete instead of fly ash .
