FPS brick refers to Imperial sizes. FPS means foot, pound, second...units of Imperial measure. In Canada, the metric standard has been adopted for many years, but I think Imperial brick can still be obtained in some locations. I do not know the cost.

FPS bricks are the result of English oppression of India.

Wiki gives a good explanation. It is foot pound second.
