Questions & Answers
How much do they weigh?
Psi rating
Hi JasG, thank you for your question. The 8 in. x 8 in. x 16 in. Concrete Block meets ASTM requirements for concrete masonry units and has a minimum net compressive strength of 1,900 psi. Actual tested strengths are often higher, but specific values can vary by production run and manufacturing location. We hope this helps with your project!
What is the dimensions of the square within the block? Can I put a 4x4 post through the hole?
Hi Brenda, thank you for your question. The openings in a standard 8 in. x 8 in. x 16 in. Concrete Block are approximately 5.5 in. x 5.5 in., although dimensions can vary slightly by manufacturer. Yes, a standard 4x4 post (actual dimensions approximately 3.5 in. x 3.5 in.) will fit through the opening. We recommend verifying the actual block dimensions prior to installation if a precise fit is required. We hope this helps with your project!
Do these concrete blocks measure 7 1/2” or 8”?
Hi Maps, thank you for your question. The **nominal size** of this block is **8 in. x 8 in. x 16 in.**, but the **actual dimensions are approximately 7.625 in. x 7.625 in. x 15.625 in.** This allows room for standard mortar joints, resulting in an 8 in. x 8 in. x 16 in. module when installed. We hope this helps with your project!
How many blocks for 30linft. By 6 ft high
Hi Wall, thank you for your question. For a wall that is **30 linear feet long and 6 feet high**, you would need approximately **270 standard 8 in. x 8 in. x 16 in. Concrete Blocks**, assuming a single-wythe wall and allowing for standard mortar joints. We recommend purchasing a few extra blocks to account for cuts, waste, and breakage. Be sure to consult local building codes and structural requirements for a wall of this height before construction. We hope this helps with your project!
how heavy is this block
Hi Mitchell, thank you for your question. The 8 in. x 8 in. x 16 in. Concrete Block weighs approximately 38 lbs. per block.
