Disadvantages of Hollow Block
1-Maintenance cost is high.
2-Hollow blocks have a low bearing capacity as the average mass of wall decoration materials is reduced, and the load-bearing capacity is usually decreased.
3-It is very risky to hang huge things on walls.
4-Hollow blocks are porous so, a high chance of water seepage.
hollow bricks reduce the total weight of the construction and also reduces the wall thickness of the building which will eventually increase the life of the building and will give more space inside the building
Hollow bricks can be used to design your interior walls as it can be cut into different shapes easily. Hollow bricks are cheaper than red brick and also the construction consumes less time.

never try to use hollow block for construct a building because there is the chance for causing crack in wall
