Analisis Standar Mutu Batu Bata Merah Tradisional Di Deli Serdang Dengan Indikator SNI 15-2094-2000

Abstract

This study aims to determine the quality of red bricks in Deli Serdang Regency, North Sumatra Province, Indonesia with the SNI 15-2094-2000 standard as a reference. The number of red brick samples is 405 from 15 districts. Tests carried out in the form of testing the appearance, size and tolerances, compressive strength, water absorption, and salt content. The results of the analysis of visible properties for uniform color were 80% of the sample, loud when hit 66.7%, 53% right angle, 86.7% flat, and 86.7% uncracked. For size and tolerance as much as 66.6% of the sample does not meet the standard, for an average compressive strength of 100% it does not meet the standard because it is below 5 MPa. The results of water absorption were only 1.9% of the sample which met the standard below 20%, and for the salt content of all.
