Dimensions and Permissible Variations6.1 The size of the brick shall be specified by the purchaser,selecting any of the standard sizes of building brick.6.2 For any lot of sewer brick furnished under thisspecification, not more than 2 % of the brick shall vary fromthe nomina

18、l size requirements specified in 6.1 by more than618 in. (3 mm) in either transverse dimension, or by more than614 in. (6 mm) in length.7. Finish and Appearance7.1 Sewer brick shall have plain or smooth surfaces on bothends and on the face side.7.2 Manhole brick shall have plain, slightly, or modera

19、telytextured surfaces.7.3 The brick, as delivered to the site, shall conform byvisual inspection to the requirements specified by the purchaseror to the sample or samples approved as standard of compari-son and to the samples passing the tests for physical require-ments. Minor indentions and surface

20、 cracks incidental to theusual methods of manufacture, or the small chipping resultingfrom the customary methods of handling in shipment anddelivery, should not be deemed grounds for rejection.7.4 Brick shall be of rectangular cross section with substan-tially straight edges and square corners.7.5 K
