As per IS 1077:1992 : Common Burnt Clay Building Bricks - Specification, Common burnt clay bricks shall be classified on the basis of average compressive strength as given in the table below:
| Class Designation | Average Compressive Strength not less than (N/mm2) |
| 35 | 35.0 |
| 30 | 30.0 |
| 25 | 25.0 |
| 20 | 20.0 |
| 17.5 | 17.5 |
| 15 | 15.0 |
| 12.5 | 12.5 |
| 10 | 10.0 |
| 7.5 | 7.5 |
| 5.0 | 5.0 |
| 3.5 | 3.5 |
Therefore, the minimum compressive strength of burnt clay brick is 3.5 MPa.
