Product catalog summary
Product Specifications
CEMEX READYBLOCK® complies with BS EN 771–3:2003 for aggregate concrete masonry units. It features dimensional tolerances of Category D1 (+3mm, -5mm) and a mean compressive strength of 7.3 N/mm². The moisture movement coefficient is ≤ 1.0 mm/m, bond strength is fixed at 0.15 N/mm², and it has a reaction to fire classification of Class A1. The gross and net dry density is 1400 kg/m³, with thermal conductivity values of 0.46 W/mK internally and 0.49 W/mK externally.
Features and Benefits
The blocks are suitable for commercial and leisure developments, offering durability, economy, and color coordination. They provide an even surface for finishes and excellent resistance to air permeability with masonry paint. Manufactured with lightweight aggregates, they meet manual handling regulations.
Delivery and Storage
Blocks are delivered in banded packs and should be stored in planned locations to minimize handling. They should be protected from weather and damage.
Health and Safety
Safe handling practices are essential, with lift heights not exceeding six full block courses per day. A separate safety datasheet is available.
Blocklaying
Construction should follow BS 8000-3 guidelines. Blocks can be used below DPC and should not be laid in temperatures below 3°C. Mortar joints should be fully filled, and cutting should be done in a designated area.
Finished Work
Blockwork should be protected from weather, and movement joints should be provided as per BS 5628: Part 3. Two coats of alkali-resisting masonry paint are recommended for finishing.
Sustainability
The thermal mass of ReadyBlock® can reduce the need for air-conditioning and heating, contributing to sustainability.
FAQs
ReadyBlock® does not have a U Value; it depends on wall construction. The blocks have a long life expectancy if protected from aggressive conditions and are suitable for party walls with sound insulation when used in a 75mm cavity wall.

Blocks are normally delivered to site in banded packs oncrane-offload road vehicles. Where requested packs can be delivered shrink-wrapped and/or palletised to aid subsequent site movement activities. All packaging should be disposed of carefully in accordance with local environmental requirements.If possible, delivered blocks should be stacked in plannedlocations on the site. This reduces the double-handling of the blocks.Packs should be stacked carefully onto a prepared, clean,firm area to minimise soiling and damage. They should also be protected from inclement weather and passing vehicles....
