8、sistant masonry units,refer to Terminology C1232.4.Classification4.1 The physical and chemical properties of brick and tilediffer from supplier to supplier,mainly because their compo-sition is determined by the source of raw materials.Regardlessof the differences,brick and tile are considered to be
9、one ofthree types and one of two classes as follows:4.1.1 Type IFor use where low absorption and high acidresistance are not major factors.4.1.2 Type IIFor use where lower absorption and higheracid resistance are required.4.1.3 Type IIIFor use where minimum absorption andmaximum acid resistance are
10、required.NOTE1Types I,II,and III may not differ significantly in thermalshock resistance.The suitability of a given brick,for a particularapplication should be determined at the time of purchase by agreementbetween the purchaser and the supplier.NOTE2Types I and III were formerly designated Type“H”a
11、nd“L”respectively.4.1.4 Class SFor use in standard applications.4.1.5 Class XFor use where a higher degree of precisionand lower permissible variation in size than that permitted forClass S is required.5.Physical Properties5.1 StrengthThe brick and tile when tested in accordancewith Test Methods C67
