These are also fully burnt and give a clear ringing sound when struck together. Slightly irregularities in shape, size or color are accepted.

Its compressive strength shall not be less than 70 kg/cm2 and absorption value should not be greater than 22 percent when soaked for 24 hours in water.

Slight difference in the structure on fractured surfaces is admissible.

Use: For exterior work when plastering is to be done. And can also be used for interior works but they may not be used for flooring.

Note : under burnt brick is 3rd class brick.

B option is Correct.

First class and Second Class, both produce metallic ringing sound because of hardness property.

Second class brick is slightly over burnt.

Dark brown/bluish colour is of Jahma bricks.
