When you have a construction project that demands superior performance and longevity, engineering bricks (supplied by Trade Warehouse) are a good choice.
These unique bricks are designed specifically for high-strength applications and offer exceptional load-bearing capacity, water resistance, and durability, making them indispensable for foundations, retaining walls, and more.
Why Choose Engineering Bricks?
Unmatched Load-Bearing Strength: With high compressive strength, these bricks are perfect for supporting heavy structures and ensuring long-term stability.
Great Water Resistance: Engineered to resist moisture, they are ideal for damp environments and below-ground applications.
Built To Last (Long!): Perfect for retaining walls, tunnels, and bridges, these bricks stand the test of time in even the harshest conditions.
Aesthetic Choice: Their smooth, plain surfaces and unique colors like Staffordshire Smooth Blue and Ketley Blue add a distinct touch to design-focused projects.
Cost-Effective Foundations: Durable and economical, engineering bricks save costs on unseen foundational work while delivering exceptional performance.
For Your Info: The Classes of Engineering Bricks
Class A Engineering Bricks:
Compression Strength: 125 N/mm²
Water Absorption: Less than 4.5%
Colors: Predominantly blue, with red and grey options
Ideal for projects demanding maximum strength and water resistance.
Class B Engineering Bricks:
Compression Strength: 75 N/mm²
Water Absorption: Less than 7%
Colors: Available in red, blue, grey, and buff
A versatile and economical choice for many construction needs.
Applications of Engineering Bricks
Foundations and Footings: Lay the groundwork for secure and moisture-resistant builds with these robust bricks.
Damp-Proof Courses: Prevent rising damp and maintain the structural integrity of your project with low water absorption bricks.
Retaining Walls and Groundworks: Ensure strength and stability in landscaping and structural applications.
Specialty Projects: From bridges to tunnels and canals, their durability and water resistance make them a trusted choice for critical infrastructure.
The Manufacturing Advantage
Engineering bricks owe their unparalleled strength and resilience to a meticulous manufacturing process.
Clay is carefully selected for its durable properties and fired at high temperatures, hardening its molecular structure.
The signature blue color of Class A bricks comes from firing in a low-oxygen environment, creating an impervious surface that’s both strong and moisture-resistant.
Designed for Performance, Priced for Value
Why compromise? Engineering bricks offer the best of both worlds—exceptional durability and affordability.
Their smooth surfaces and understated aesthetics ensure they’re perfect for functional purposes while remaining cost-effective for foundational work that will remain out of sight.
