- General load-bearing and structural brickwork
What is the difference between Class A and Class B engineering bricks?
Class A bricks offer higher compressive strength (≥125N/mm²) and lower water absorption (≤4.5%), while Class B bricks (≥75N/mm², ≤7% absorption) provide strong, reliable performance for most structural applications at a lower cost.
