Engineering bricks are specified for their physical characteristics and not their appearance.
They have high compressive strength and low water absorption and are classified only by these properties.
Their use for facing work should be avoided, as they are not subject to the same level of inspection for surface irregularities or colour variation as a facing brick.
Where aesthetic performance is a major consideration, facing bricks must be used
This Class B engineering brick from Wienerberger, one of the leading suppliers of facing bricks in the UK, is suitable for manholes and places where decoration is not of prime importance. The perforated bricks can be used below a damp proofing course and offer high resistance to frost. Pack size will vary on geographic location and production factory.
The high compressive strength and low water absorption properties and guaranteed durability of engineering bricks make them ideal for use below ground level and damp proof courses. Also often used as a capping for walls with creasing tiles to form a drip point
