HOW TO: Estimate Mortar Quantity for your CHB Wall

Determine the CHB thickness used for your wall: Concrete hollow blocks (CHB) vary in sizes. Local hardware stores usually have 3 commercially-available CHBs that vary in thickness – 4"(10cm), 6"(15cm) and 8"(20cm). 4"(10cm) thick CHBs are usually used for interior walls while 6"(15cm) and 8"(20cm) thick CHBs are usually used for exterior walls.
