A brick is building material used to make walls, pavements and other elements in masonry construction.
Types of bricks:
Burnt Clay Bricks:
Burnt clay bricks are the classic form of brick, created by pressing wet clay into molds, then drying and firing them in kilns. This is a very old building material—the type of brick found in many of the ancient structures of the world.
Fly Ash Bricks:
Fly ash brick (FAB) is a building material, specifically masonry units, containing fly ash and water. Compressed and cured for 24 hours i, then toughened with an air entrainment agent.The manufacturing method saves energy, reduces mercury pollution, and costs 20% less than traditional clay brick manufacturing.
Concrete Bricks:
Concrete brick is a mixture of cement and aggregate, usually sand, formed in molds and cured. Certain mineral colours are added to produce a concrete brick resembling clay.
