Wall plugs are one of the most commonly used fixings for solid walls. Wall plugs often called rawl plugs can be used to fix items to brick, stone and concrete. However wall plugs do not work too well in aerated concrete and so it’s better if you can use another fixing such as Dewalt Gasbeton- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YwAMQcbJS0U
