History of Bricks: Bricks are one of the oldest types of building blocks.
They are an ideal building material because they are relativelycheap to make, very durable, and require little maintenance.
,
,
A brickis a block of ceramic material used in masonryconstruction, usually laid using various kinds of mortar.

History of Bricks: Bricks dated 10,000 years old were found in the
Middle East.
Examples of the civilizations who used mud brick
are the ancient Egyptians and the Indus ValleyCivilization, where it was used exclusively. Inparticular, it is evident from the ruins of Buhen,Mohenjo-Daro and Harappa.
The first sun-dried bricks dpy; were made in Mesopotamia (what is now Iraq), inthe ancient city of Ur in about 4000 BC

Bonding of Brickwork / Blockwork
Bonding of brickwork is thearrangement of brickwork in a wall,
column or pier which will give maximum
overlap and no continuous vertical
joints. The purpose of bonding is to:-
1. Obtain maximum strength whilstdistributing the loads carried by the
walls.
2. Ensure lateral stability andresistance to side thrusts.
3. Create an acceptable appearance.
LOAD
Possible settlement
Unbonded walls Comparatively weak and liable to fail under load or lateral
thrust.

General Characteristics of Bricks
Brick is made of clay or shale formed, dried and fired into
a durable ceramic product.
There are three ways to form the shape and size of a brick:
Extruded (stiff mud), Kiwik
Molded (soft mud) Kiwik
Dry-pressed. Kiwik
The majority of brick are made by the extrusion method.
-
8/21/2019 Bricks Notes for AL Tech by Hafeel Sir

Brick achieves its color through the minerals in thefired clay or through coatings that are applied before orafter the firing process. This provides a durable colorthat never fades or diminishes.

The method used to form a brick has a major impact onits texture.
Sand-finished surfaces are typical with molded brick.
A variety of textures can be achieved with extruded brick.
Brick manufacturers address sustainability by locatingmanufacturing facilities near clay sources to reducetransportation, by recycling of process waste, by
reclaiming land where mining has occurred, and bytaking measures to reduce plant emissions. Most brickare used within 500 miles of a brick manufacturingfacility.

Raw material for clay:
Clay is one of the most abundant natural mineralmaterials on earth. For brick manufacturing, clay mustpossess some specific properties and characteristics.
Such clays must have
plasticity,which permits them to be shaped or moldedwhen mixed with water; they must have
sufficient wet and air-dried strength tomaintain their shape after forming.
Also, when subjected to appropriate temperatures, theclay particles must fuse together.

PROPOERTIES OF BRICKS

8/21/2019 Bricks Notes for AL Tech by Hafeel Sir
52/84
PROPOERTIES OF BRICKS The most important properties of brick are
1) durability -
2) color -
3) texture -
4) size variation -
5) compressive strength -
6) absorption. -
-
8/21/2019 Bricks Notes for AL Tech by Hafeel Sir
53/84
Durability:
The durability of brick depends upon achievingincipient fusion and partial vitrification during firing.
Because compressive strength and absorption values arealso related to the firing temperatures, these properties,together with saturation coefficient, are currently takenas predictors of durability in brick specifications.
However, because of differences in raw materials andmanufacturing methods, a single set of values ofcompressive strength and absorption will not reliablyindicate the degree of firing.
-
8/21/2019 Bricks Notes for AL Tech by Hafeel Sir
54/84
Texture:
Coatings and Glazes : Many brick have smooth or sand-finished textures produced by the dies or molds used informing.
A smooth texture, commonly referred to as a die skin
results from pressure exerted by the steel die as the claypasses through it in the extrusion process. Mostextruded brick have the die skin removed and thesurface further treated to produce other textures usingdevices that cut, scratch, roll, brush or otherwise
roughen the surface as the clay column leaves the dieBrick may be tumbled before or after firing to achieve anantique appearance.
Color:
-
8/21/2019 Bricks Notes for AL Tech by Hafeel Sir
55/84
Color:
The color of fired clay depends upon its chemical composition,the firing temperatures and the method of firing control.
Of all the oxides commonly found in clays, iron probably hasthe greatest effect on color. Regardless of its natural color, claycontaining iron in practically any form will exhibit a shade ofred when exposed to an oxidizing fire because of the formationof ferrous oxide. When fired in a reducing atmosphere, thesame clay will assume a dark (or black) hue. Creating areducing atmosphere in the kiln is known as flashing orreduction firing.
Given the same raw material and manufacturing method,
darker colors are associated with higher firing temperatures,lower absorption values and higher compressive strength
values. However, for products made from different rawmaterials, there is no direct relationship between strength and
color or absorption and color.
Size Variation
-
8/21/2019 Bricks Notes for AL Tech by Hafeel Sir
56/84
Size Variation
Because clays shrink during both drying and firing,allowances are made in the forming process to achieve the
desired size of the finished brick. Both drying shrinkage andfiring shrinkage vary for different clays, usually falling withinthe following ranges:
Drying shrinkage: 2 to 4 percent
Firing shrinkage: 2.5 to 4 percent
Firing shrinkage increases with higher temperatures, whichproduce darker shades. When a wide range of colors isdesired, some variation between the sizes of the dark andlight units is inevitable.
To obtain products of uniform size, manufacturers controlfactors contributing to shrinkage. Because of normal
variations in raw materials and temperature variations withinkilns, absolute uniformity is impossible. Consequently,
specifications for brick allow size variations.
-
8/21/2019 Bricks Notes for AL Tech by Hafeel Sir
57/84
Compressive Strength and Absorption
Both compressive strength and absorption are affected
by properties of the clay, method of manufacture anddegree of firing.
For a given clay and method of manufacture, highercompressive strength values and lower absorption
values are associated with higher firing temperatures.Although absorption and compressive strength can becontrolled by manufacturing and firing methods, theseproperties depend largely upon the properties of the
raw materials.

Test on bricks
To know the quality of bricks following 7 tests can beperformed. In these tests some are performed inlaboratory and the rest are on field.
1. Compressive strength test
2. Water Absorption test
3. Efflorescense test
4. Hardness test
5. Size, Shape and Color test6. Soundness test
7. Structure test

Compressive strength test
Compressive strength test:This test is done to knowthe compressive strength of brick. It is also calledcrushing strength of brick. Generally 5 specimens of
bricks are taken to laboratory for testing and testedone by one. In this test a brick specimen is put oncrushing machine and applied pressure till it breaks.The ultimate pressure at which brick is crushed is
taken into account. All five brick specimens are testedone by one and average result is taken as brick'scompressive/crushing strength.

Water Absorption test
Water Absorption test:In this test bricks areweighed in dry condition and let them immersed infresh water for 24 hours. After 24 hours of immersionthose are taken out from water and wipe out withcloth. Then brick is weighed in wet condition. Thedifference between weights is the water absorbed bybrick. The percentage of water absorption is thencalculated.
The less water absorbed by brick the greater itsquality. Good quality brickdoesn't absorb more than20% water of its own weight.

74/84
Efflorescense test Efflorescense test:The presence of alkalies in bricks is
harmful and they form a gray or white layer on bricksurface by absorbing moisture. To find out the presence ofalkalis in bricks this test is performed. In this test a brick is
immersed in fresh water for 24 hours and then it's takenout from water and allowed to dry in shade.
If the whitish layer is not visible on surface it proofs thatabsence of alkalis in brick. If the whitish layer visible about10% of brick surface then the presence of alkalis is inacceptable range. If that is about 50% of surface then it ismoderate. If the alkalis's presence is over 50% then thebrick is severely affected by alkalies
