What is Thai Industrial Standard (TIS) 77-2565 clay brick? How does it differ from ordinary bricks?
Red brick TIS 77-2565 These are ordinary construction bricks that have been certified by... The Thai Industrial Standards Institute (TISI) The latest version — effective March 30, 2023 — replaces the previous TIS 77-2545, with stricter testing criteria in three main areas: Accurate dimensions, Compressive Strength and Water absorption rate
Due to these characteristics, bricks conforming to Thai Industrial Standard 77-2565 are specified in the Terms of Reference (TOR) for government projects, Department of Public Works projects, hospitals, schools, and private sector projects requiring high stability.
