3. Types of Red Bricks We Supply

Below are the various red bricks available, suited to different applications in Mysore:

3.1 First Class Bricks

• Characteristics: Deep red color, sharp edges, well‐burnt, uniform shape.
• Strength: High compressive strength; suitable for load‐bearing walls, pillars.
• Usage: Main structural walls, exposed brickwork.

3.2 Second Class Bricks

• Slightly less uniform; minor chips, slight color variation.
• Good for fill walls, interior partitions, where appearance is less critical.

3.3 Third Class Bricks

• Economical option, rougher finish, more imperfections.
• Used for internal fills, temporary structures, non‐load bearing portions.

3.4 Specialised Bricks

• Hollow Bricks: Lighter, good for insulation, reduces material cost.
• Frog Bricks: Indentation (“frog”) for mortar keying; saves mortar.
• Fly Ash Bricks: More eco‐friendly; uses industrial by‑product, better thermal insulation.
• Colour Bricks / Face Bricks: For aesthetic exteriors.

All of these are types of red or clay bricks, or close variants, that we supply.

4. Types of Sand We Provide

Different works need different sands. We supply:

4.1 River Sand

• Naturally sourced; fine particles, smooth texture.
• Best for plastering, tiling, finishing due to less crushing.

4.2 M‑Sand (Manufactured Sand)

• Produced by crushing rocks; more consistent grading.
• Ideal when river sand is scarce or heavily regulated.

4.3 Pit Sand

• Coarser texture; good drainage.
• Used in bricklaying mortar, concrete mix where workability can tolerate bigger grains.

4.4 Concrete Sand & Plaster Sand

• Concrete Sand: Coarser, good for structural concrete (foundations, slabs).
• Plaster Sand: Very fine, washed to remove silt; used for pointing, plaster work.

5. Quality Standards for Bricks and Sand in Mysore

We ensure all our Red Bricks and Sand in Mysore comply with:

• BIS IS 1077 for common burnt clay building bricks – shape, size, strength.
• BIS IS 383 for aggregate quality, including grading of sand.
• Moisture content limits, silt content in sand (ideally <5 %).
• Water absorption of bricks – ensures durability.

For more on BIS standards see the official document on building material standards (Bureau of Indian Standards) ‒ do‑follow link:

6. Uses of Different Red Bricks and Sand in Mysore Applications

Here’s how different types find use in specific construction phases:

6.1 Foundation

• Use first class bricks or hollow bricks where weight and strength matters.
• For sand: concrete sand with correct mix ratio ensures strong foundation.

6.2 Walls & Structures

• Load bearing walls: first class or special bricks.
• Partition walls: second or hollow bricks.
• Mortar made with river sand or M‑sand depending on availability.

6.3 Plastering & Finishing

• Plaster sand (fine, clean) gives smooth finish.
• Face bricks or colour bricks for visible surfaces.

6.4 Pavements & Outdoor Work

• Bricks that are durable, less absorbent, weather‑resistant.
• Sand that drains well; use pit sand or graded sand.

7. Ordering, Delivery & Pricing of Red Bricks and Sand in Mysore

• Minimum order quantities: we accept orders as low as you need, but bulk gives better rates.
• Delivery schedule: same‑day or next‑day within Mysore city limits, depending on order size.
• Pricing: varies with quality, grade of bricks; sand pricing depends on type (river vs M‑sand) and transport. We quote inclusive rates.

8. How to Test the Quality of Red Bricks and Sand in Mysore Yourself

Use simple tests before purchasing large quantities:

• Brick Water Absorption Test: Soak brick for 24 hrs; weigh; water absorption should be < 20 %.
• Compression Test: If possible, check strength via a certified lab.
• Sand Silt Test: Mix sand with water in transparent container; let settle; flaky or cloudy layer shows silt.
• Grain Size Test: Rub sand between fingers — fine sand should feel smooth; coarse sand, rough.

9. Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What class of red bricks is best for exterior walls in Mysore?
A: First class bricks or face bricks are best because of better finish and weather resistance.

Q: Is M‑Sand better than river sand?
A: M‑Sand offers consistent quality and less silt; river sand may be smoother but variable. Depends on the project and regulation.

Q: Can we mix different sand types?
A: Yes, but carefully. Mixing coarse and fine sands can help, but ensure overall grading is correct.
