Investigation on physical properties of sand-cement and calcium silicate bricks. / Wan Jailani Wan Hussin
Bricks are popular for use in construction industries specially as a infill material. However the use of bricks as a load bearing structural are quite new in Malaysia. This research is carried out to investigate the physical properties of ordinary bricks either it can be used as a load bearing wall....

| Summary: | Bricks are popular for use in construction industries specially as a infill material. However the use of bricks as a load bearing structural are quite new in Malaysia. This research is carried out to investigate the physical properties of ordinary bricks either it can be used as a load bearing wall. It may reduce the cost and time of construction due to the eliminating other frame structure. It is the aim of this paper to investigate and discuss the brick properties in term of their strength, flexural and absorptivity. |
