pressive strength of baked clay as high as 30 MPa can be obtained by firing at 1100˚C [19]. Whereas, the design cube crushing strength of normal concrete is 20 MPa . This shows that on proper compaction and baking of [21] clay, higher compressive strength can be obtained as compared to that of normal concrete.

Concrete compressive strength for general construction varies from 15 MPa (2200 psi) to 30 MPa (4400 psi) and higher in commercial and industrial structures. Compressive strength of concrete depends on many factors such as water-cement ratio, cement strength, quality of concrete material, quality control during the production of concrete, etc.
