Compression Test on Brick ( Crushing Strength Test)
The crushing or compressive strength of normal building bricks should not be below 3.5 N/mm². The bricks of high quality should not have strength below 14 N/mm². The compressive strength test is also known as the crushing strength test which is an important type of laboratory test conducted on bricks

Check the Quality of Bricks for Construction: Hardness ...
Place the brick inside the machine and apply load on it until the brick breaks. Note down the value when the brick was broken and determine the crushing strength value of the brick. The minimum crushing strength of brick is 3.50N/mm 2. If it is less than 3.50 N/mm 2, then don’t use the bricks in construction. Hardness test

Towards a simple compressive strength test for earth bricks?
The bricks were usually tested in the direction in which they were manufactured, which is also the direction in which they are generally used in walls. From 5 to 10 bricks were usually tested for the compressive strength measurement. The effects of geometry on the compressive strength of the bricks were usually studied in two ways.
