(Practice)Standard Practice for Dimensions of a Modular Series of Refractory Brick and Shapes
Standard Practice for Dimensions of a Modular Series of Refractory Brick and Shapes
SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
The dimensions listed in this practice represent the dimensions of rectangular and tapered refractory shapes manufactured and used in the United States.
The modular concept of dimensions permits a versatile arrangement of bonding during the construction of masonry units.
SCOPE
1.1 This practice covers the dimensions for rectangular and tapered brick in common usage in the United States.
1.2 The dimensions are modular based on 38 mm as the basic module as described in Practice C 861.
