Answer
Generally, standard hollow clay blocks are designed for non-load-bearing walls (partitions). However:
- Standard Blocks: Suitable for partition walls, infill walls in framed structures
- Reinforced Blocks: Some high-density hollow blocks can be used for structural walls with proper engineering
- Wienerberger Porotherm: Engineered for superior strength and can be used in various applications
Always consult a structural engineer before using hollow blocks for foundations or main supporting walls.
