Arches, vaults and pillars generally experience eccentric normal force. As a consequence, the classical theories of masonry collapse, developed for concentrically compressed brickwork, are not directly applicable. In this paper experimental data on solid clay brick and limemortar masonry prisms, eccentrically loaded, are presented. Comparing the results to the response of a FEM …

Compressive Strength. Concrete scores high on compressive strength. It impressively ranges from 2,500 to 5,000 psi, with some high-strength mixes reaching an astounding 8,000 psi. That's like a heavyweight champion bodybuilder with an extra protein shake. Brick, on the other hand, holds its ground with a compressive strength of about 3,000 psi.
