yes, interlock bricks can be used for house construction. Consider the following points: *Advantages * Does not require plastering No need for cement mortar No need for curing High strength Speedy construction. *Disadvantages* The gap between the bricks, since it is not plastered, is prone to insect attack. skilled labour is required to reduce wastage. At corners, there is a chance of sliding of interlock bricks so measures should be taken to cater to this. Better to provide a concrete frame around the window. Without column, suitable for G+1 buildings. Interlock bricks at the exterior walls are prone to weathering, so there are changes of colour fading. Exterior walls need to be plastered.

Less labor intensive and more time-saving as the Interlocking blocks need only be fitted to each other; instead of conventional cement mortar construction. The Interlocking bricks can be salvaged without damage when the house is being dismantled in the future. It's because the high-compacted bricks have a high density that converts them to resist the airflow resulting in warm interiors. On the other hand, interlocking bricks have less density than conventional bricks that allow good air-flow. So, walls with these bricks furnish a much cooler interior. Interlocking bricks are not safe for tall buildings. In fact, they are only good for the first three stories of a building. That is why interlocking bricks are usually reserved for residential buildings and are not used to construct commercial buildings.
