Beatsons Concrete Common Brick Smooth With Frog

Key Features Summary High Structural Strength: Engineered from high-density, dense concrete for load-bearing reliability in general construction. Deep Frog Design: Features an indented top face ("frog") that holds mortar to increase joint bonding strength and overall wall stability. Excellent Frost & Moisture Resistance: Fully compliant for use above and below the Damp Proof Course (DPC) in freeze-thaw risk conditions. Smooth Standard Finish: Offers consistent dimensions and flat, smooth faces for clean alignment and uniform mortar lines. Versatile Construction Use: Suitable for internal load-bearing walls, foundations, partition walls, and background masonry for rendering.   Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Should the frog face up or down when laying? Standard bricklaying practice requires common bricks to be laid frog side up. Filling the entire frog with mortar ensures the finished wall achieves its full structural strength, load-bearing capacity, and sound insulation properties. Can these concrete commons be left exposed externally? While concrete commons can be used externally, they are primarily structural bricks. They are generally specified for background work, foundations, and walls that will be rendered, plastered, or face-clad. For visible decorative facades, a dedicated facing brick is usually recommended. How many concrete common bricks are needed per square metre? Using standard 10mm mortar joints, you will need approximately 60 bricks per square metre for a single-skin wall.
