The use of results from testing of brick extracted from masonry structures for determining conformance or nonconformance to the property requirements (Section ) of this specification is beyond the scope of this specification.
1.3 Brick covered by this specification are manufactured from clay, shale, or similar naturally occurring substances and subjected to a heat treatment at elevated temperatures (firing). The heat treatment must develop sufficient fired bond between the particulate constituents to provide the strength and durability requirements of the specification. (See "firing" and "fired bond" in Terminology C 43.)
1.4 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The metric equivalents may be approximate.
