Actually no. I trust that C T and A would spec and require the proper bricks.
Thanks.

So, Eric, are you suggesting that the project under discussion is likely to suffer the same fate?

> We used fully glazed Glen Gery on Chrysler matching the original exactly. GG had bought the Hanover Plant in Pennsylvania who had supplied the original construction. They tested very well for freeze/thaw as well as compression and glaze performance. Ironically, much of the clay coat brick used in the previous repair program had failed miserably. The test data that had been produced for "that" project clearly indicated that they would likely fail in freeze/thaw. They did!

This type of brick is coated with a white ceramic slip rather than a salt glaze so it is far more permeable to water vapor than the traditional glazed brick. This makes these brick far less likely to surface spall.
