Topic: Have a query.I am building a small house in Bangalore. I am planning to do a bri

Have a query.I am building a small house in Bangalore. I am planning to do a brick cladding for the house - does it matter if masonry is with bricks or cement blocks. Mainly from keeping the house cool perspective I want to know.

Dear Radha
        See the below contents if fit than use

Thermal Insulation of Exposed Walls

The heat and cold radiate through exposed walls of the house. There are following methods of thermal insulation of exposed walls.
1. You may provide suitable thickness of wall.
2. You may provide Hallow wall or cavity wall.
3. You may fix Hardboards or ply board on wooden batten over the wall for creating air space.
4. You may fix Thermal insulating material sheet inside and outside exposed wall to reduce heat/cold transmission.
5. You may construct outer wall with thermal insulating material if you have frame structural building or non-load bearing walls.

Appreciate the help.  Since exterior is hallow bricks (similar to total environment projects)  I am considering cement block masonry as opposed to brick as I am told no diff to inside house temp

Thanks
