Comments and Conclusions:
SPECIFIC GRAVITY: According to IS:2386 Part-3 the specific gravity of Fine Aggregate is
2.50 – 3.0. Therefore the Average of specific gravity of Brick Aggregate is 2.45. we know
that the aggregate is of Brick so the Specific Gravity is not attained as per Indian
Standards.Hence the value is coloser to IS:2386 Part-3 It is negligible.
WATER ABSOPTION: According to IS:1077-1992 clause 7.2, Bricks after immersion in

water for 24hours, Water Absorption shall not be more than 15% by weight. Therefore, we
got the water absorption as 10.45%. It is satisfactory meeting the Indian Standard Code.
