What is Compressive Strength of brick?
The compressive stength of brick is load bearing value as tested in lab or it may be called as crushing stregth value. This value should not be less than 105kg/ centimeter sqare for a standard sized brick.
How do you calculate the load bearing capacity of scaffolding?
Before you can calculate the load bearing capacity of a scaffold, you will need to know there are three types of scaffolding; light duty, medium duty, and heavy duty. Now you can calculate the load bearing capacity by using the height to base ratio.

Why permissible compressive strength decreases with increase in grade of concrete?
it Gives Better estimation and assumption on how much it could carry. By logic, higher strength concrete is used on larger loads therefore, it is still not sure if the loads will be larger than the specified concrete strength. Therefore, having lower permissible strenth helps designers to have allowances for loadings to ensure safety

What is a crawl foundation in construction?
Instead of pouring a concrete slab for your floor you can have it built out of
engineered i-joist. They do this by building concrete footings with a stem wall on top of that. They will then pour footings for pony walls or post and beams to support the i-joist's. They will then run the joist over the pony walls which will create your CRAWL SPACE. This also gives you the ability to fully insulate underneath the floor and have access to your plumbing if you run into problems with that later on. its also a little more forgiving when your children take those tumbles to the floor.
