The team tested the strength and durability of the bricks, comparing them to regular clay bricks. When they measured the compressive strength of the latter, the bricks withstood 23.1 Megapascal ...

Additionally, thanks to the manner in which the vertically oriented spacers within each brick are offset from one another, the bricks boast a compressive strength of 44.9 megapascals, which is ...

The biosolid-enhanced bricks passed compressive strength tests and analysis demonstrated heavy metals are largely trapped within the brick. Biosolids can have significantly different chemical ...

Stronger than a traditional clay brick, the Polycor brick boasts a compressive strength of 70N, compared with 10-12N for a clay brick. This has the potential to enable fabrication of taller ...

Engineers at RMIT University in Australia have converted low-grade clay into a high-performance cement supplement, opening a potential new market in sustainable construction materials. The global ...

The bricks are not only 20% lighter, but they have a compressive strength 20% stronger than clay bricks and their production doesn’t rely upon devastating quarry mining techniques. Continue ...
