Amit Hasija Join date: Sep 2007	Post subject: Concrete bricks are strong than clay bricks Dear Pallubc2, Concrete bricks are made of cement, sand and aggregate so it become strong and costly where clay bricks are made with natural clay so it is low in cost and strength. So cost wise clay bricks are good where strength wise I would prefer concrete bricks. Regards
