FOREWORD 0.1 This Indian Standard ( Second Revision ) was adopted by the Indian Standards Institution on 30 June 1986, after the draft finalized by the Building Limes Sectional Committee had been approved by the Civil Engineering Division Council. 0.2 Ground broken brick ( burnt clay ), commonly known as SURKHI, is also used as fine aggregate in the preparation of lime mortar where fine aggregates derived from natural sources are not available in plenty It is a good alternative to sand where or where its cost is prohibitive. well-burnt bricks are available in sufficient quantity. It can be used in mortars for masonry and other works requiring lower loads and less severe conditions of service. Fine aggregates prepared from bricks of varying strengths and properties are used for lime mortar in different To give a rational approach for use of this type parts of the country. of aggregate in lime mortar, this standard has been formulated. 0.3 This standard was first published in 1967 and subsequently revised in 1975. The present revision has been prepared with a view to incorporating the modifications found necessary in the light of experience gained In this revision, the requirements of during the use of this standard. broken brick fine aggregates in respect of specific gravity, water soluble matter and material finer than 75 pm IS sieve have also been incorporated. 0.4 For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the final value, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test, shall be rounded off in accordance with The number of significant places retained in the rounded IS : 2-1960's. off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard. *Ruler for roundig off numerical values ( rruisrd). 3 X5:31821.
