Scope*1.1 This specification covers brick made principally fromsand a
3、nd lime and intended for use in brick masonry. Twogrades of brick are covered:1.1.1 Grade SWBrick intended for use where exposed totemperature below freezing in the presence of moisture.NOTE 1As a typical example, brick used for foundation courses andparapets in the northeastern quarter of the Unite
4、d States should conformto Grade SW.1.1.2 Grade MWBrick intended for use where exposed totemperature below freezing but unlikely to be saturated withwater.NOTE 2As a typical example, brick exposed in the face of the wallother than parapet or foundations, or brick intended for structures locatedin reg
5、ions of the United States characterized by less severe frost action orby drier climate than is found in the northeastern quarter of the UnitedStates should conform to Grade MW.1.1.3 When the term brick is used in this specification, it isunderstood to mean brick or solid masonry units.1.2 If brick h

Dimensions and Permissible Variations5.1 The size of brick shall be as specified by the purchaserand the average size of
10、 brick furnished shall approximate thesize specified in the invitation for bids.5.2 No overall dimension (width, height, and length) shalldiffer by more than 618 in. (3.2 mm) from the specifiedstandard dimension. The width requirement does not apply totextured finishes such as split or rocked faces.
11、 Standarddimensions of units are the manufacturers designated dimen-sions.6. Finish and Appearance6.1 All units shall be sound and free of cracks or otherdefects that interfere with the proper placement of the unit orsignificantly impair the strength or permanence of the construc-tion.
