Welcome to WSCPA
Western States Clay Products Association was formed in 1962 by brick manufacturers in the Western United States to develop technical information for enhancing quality use of clay brick construction with special attention directed to the seismic performance of clay brick.
Technical Reports
WSCPA engaged the Wind Science and Engineering Research Center to conduct tests on three series of clay brick panels. The tests were conducted on April 26, 2012 and were successful in qualifying each panel assembly to meet the debris impact guidelines of FEMA 320/361 and ICC-500. Debris impact resistance was based on the scheduled reinforcement.
