Results of some tests on ultimate strength of brick piers made from hand-moulded bricks
Tests made in United Kingdom and United States on brick piers indicate that strength of brick masonry piers depends on strength of individual bricks, strength of mortar used and workmanship; these tests were made on bricks of fairly high strength; usual hand-molded kiln burnt bricks, available in India, are of much lower strength; paper reports results of ultimate strength tests on piers built from such bricks; object of tests is to verify safe strength values recommended for these bricks in Indian Standard specifications.
