Synopsis
Atlas® is a clay brick cored in such a way as to permit reinforcing steel and the appropriate amount of grout within the cores when the brick is laid in a given bond pattern. The combination of brick, grout and reinforcing act together to resist tension, flexure and shear forces. Multiple Atlas sizes are available based on structural, fire, durability and aesthetic requirements.
