Compressive strength Eurocode 6 introduces some new concepts when dealing with the design of masonry for vertical loads. The first of these relates to the way the compressive strength of the masonry units is expressed. For design purposes the normalized compressive strength, f b, of the masonry units is used. This is the compressive

More Details· Compressive Strength of bricks. Generally, bricks have high compressive strength in the range of 5.5 N / mm 2 to 140 N/mm 2. If the crushing strength of the bricks is less than 3.5 N/mm 2 it must not be used. A field test about strength of the bricks is to fall the brick from a height of 1 meter and it must not break in to pieces.
