Question

Which IS code gives a code of practice for brick work?

(a) IS 2212

(b) IS 3102

(c) IS 3466

(d) IS 1077

This question was posed to me during an interview.

My question is based upon Brick Masonry in section Building Construction of Basic Civil Engineering

Answer 1

The correct option is (a) IS 2212

The best I can explain: IS 3102 gives the classification of burnt clay solid bricks. IS 3466 gives the specification for masonry cement.  IS 1077 gives the guidelines regarding common burnt clay building bricks.
