Application

Marshalls Engineering bricks comply and exceed the NHBC, Water Authorities, and Transport & Highways Agencies standards and specifications.

Functional use when requirement for strength and low water porosity.
Used above and below dpc.
Used as detailing plinth brick.
Out of ground facing brick replacement.
They are suitable for use in sulphate soil conditions up to and including DS-1, DS-2 and DS-3.

Description

Engineering Bricks are durable, high strength bricks, specially manufactured to accommodate high loads and cope with exposure to aggressive ground conditions.

Made from selected dense aggregates and a choice of cements, the bricks, which exhibit low porosity and high dimensional accuracy, are completely frost resistant suitable for use below ground where natural sulphates, up to and exceeding Class 3 levels*, are present.

Features and benefits:

Manufactured and tested in accordance with BS EN 771-3: 2011.
High strength.
Low absorption.
Comply in all respects to the standards required by BS 5628: 2005.
