High levels of fire resistance and sound insulation
Technical specification
Height
215 mm
Fire Resistance Minutes
120 minutes (2 hours) for standard load-bearing, extended to 240 minutes (4 hours) if hollow core voids are fully filled with cast-in concrete and steel reinforcement.
The Ibstock Red Engineering Class B Brick is a high-strength, low water absorption brick designed for structural applications. Manufactured using a perforated, wirecut process, it offers exceptional compressive strength, making it ideal for foundations, retaining walls, and other load-bearing projects. Its low water absorption reduces the risk of frost damage and enhances durability. As an engineering brick, it is specified for its performance rather than its appearance, meaning it is not intended for facing work. Where aesthetics are a priority, a facing brick should be used instead. Please note this product is produced in Ibstocks Chesterton factory and is therefore more suited to counties in the Midlands & South
Celcon Block Standard Grade is BBA certified and has a compressive strength of 3.6N/mm2. Its all-round performance allows a 100mm Standard Grade Celcon Block to be used consistently throughout a build, eliminating on-site confusion

Fire Resistance Minutes
120 minutes (2 hours) for structural load-bearing setups, and up to 240 minutes (4 hours) for internal, non-load-bearing partition applications
This highly efficient block (thermal conductivity of just 0.11 W/mK) is sufficiently loadbearing for two storey buildings and can be used below DPC. Identified by the distinctive painted blue line, Celcon Solar Grade has a compressive strength of 2.9N/mm2 and is principally used where enhanced thermal performance is required.
