Bricks Kilns

What is Brick?
1- Rectangular block of clay baked by the sun or in a kiln; used as a building or

paving material
2- Fired clay bricks remain one of the most enduring building materials known
to the world wide building industry. Some might argue that it is also one of
the most beautiful and that it adds character to any building with its color,
strength and texture. Clay brick dates as far back as the Egyptian age and
connects us with the history of our ancestors.
Being such a versatile building material and because of its very good climatic
characteristics, it remains the material of choice for residential buildings in South
Africa. Bricks have an excellent fire rating, it is weatherproof and has really good
acoustic properties and is almost soundproof, and best of all it amount to only
about 10 per cent of the total cost of a typical residential building. Homebuyers
will almost always prefer to buy a house constructed out of clay brick as it does not
deteriorate over time and has a higher resale value.
Bricks vary quite significantly in because of the diverse manufacturing processes

and types of clay used in their manufacture in various regions. Often potential
home builders make the mistake in thinking that all bricks are the same and there is
no need to shop around for different finishes and colors. This can be costly as the
quality of different brick manufacturers vary considerably as will also be reflected
in the price. A very cheap brick might be of un-even size or may warp making
building with them a lot more difficult.
Types of Bricks
Face brick
The use of face brick is often used in residential architecture for its low
maintenance properties and often the aesthetics is overlooked completely. Face
brick can be very aesthetically pleasing with its rustic look and a good architect
might combine face brick with plastered areas to come to more a balanced
aesthetic as face brick in its single form can be a bit overwhelming. When opting
to build with face brick make sure you appoint a good builder with a good face
brick portfolio as the jointing of a face brick wall can make or break the aesthetic
of this type of construction. Also make sure you order sufficient bricks the first
time as, because it being a natural material can vary noticeably per batch.
Cement bricks
These bricks are similar to a clay stock (plaster) brick but are more often used in
regions where clay might be in short supply. There is usually not a big price
difference between cement and clay plaster bricks and cement brick is mostly used
as a substitute. When ordering cement bricks make sure that they are properly
cured and dry before using them. If more that 5 per cent breaks upon delivery, have
a knowledgeable person check the quality of the bricks.
Plaster (Stock) bricks

Cheaper than face bricks, a plaster brick still is manufactured to high standards to
ensure uniformity of size and structure, but have to be plastered and painted
thereby canceling out the cost saving and has to be maintained at fairly regular
intervals. Often great aesthetics can be achieved by combining plastered walls with
face brick walls.
What is a brick Kiln?

According to L. K. Toggle
It is a place
where bricks
are come into
the existence
and then put
into the work in
process and
then convert
into the finished
goods or
finished bricks
are called Bricks
Kiln.
Bricks are fired by either firewood or coal. Those fired by firewood take on black and
blue color, and those by coal white. The temperature of coal-fired brick kiln is much
higher than that fired by firewood.
BRICK-KILN
brik'-kil, -kiln (malben): The Hebrew word is better translated by "brickmould." In

Syria the brickmould is still called milben. In Jer 43:9 the American Standard
Revised Version rendering is "brickwork" and the American Revised Version,
margin "pavement." 2 Sam 12:31 becomes much clearer if the American Revised
Version, margin is incorporated. Being put to work at the brickmould was
considered the task of those taken as slaves. The ancestors of the new taskmasters
had themselves been put to similar toil.
A SHORT HISTORY OF BRICK AND POTTERY MAKING

Around 1900 from Windmill Hill. The large pond is the Sea Pond which still exists. The tall chimney was on the
Malt House.
Nettlebed was the major centre for brick, tile and pottery manufacture in
Oxfordshire from medieval times, and possibly even earlier, up until the 20 th
century. As the same materials are required for both brick and pottery
manufacture, namely clay, sand, water and firewood, the history of these
products is inevitably closely linked. There is evidence that bricks were used in
the region during Roman times although no manufacturing sites have been
found. After the Romans left England around 300A.D. the use of bricks
declined until the 12th century.
Documentary evidence for the use of brick in the Middle Ages is difficult to assess
because of the ambiguity of the Latin terms used. The word ‘tegulae’ tends to be
used to mean not only clay tiles but also bricks and slates. The earliest specific use
of the word ‘brick’ in Oxfordshire occurs in 1416-17.
Nettlebed brick was renowned for its strength. Dr Robert Plot
in his ‘Natural History of Oxfordshire’ of 1676 said "About
Nettlebed they make a sort of brick so very strong that
whereas at most places they are unloaded by hand, I have seen
these shot out of carts after a manner of stone to mend
highways, and yet none of these broke; but this I suppose must be ascribed to the
Nature of the Clay, than to the skill of the Artificer in making and burning
them…."
Stonor House
During Georgian times in the 18th and early 19th centuries. A degree of
standardisation had been achieved by 1700 and a minimum size of brick confirmed
by Act of Parliament of 1725: 9 inches long, 4½" wide and 2½" thick. The result
was much neater and more regular brickwork. Calleva House
in High Street, Wallingford is a fine example of an 18th
century town house of red and silver Nettlebed brickwork
with gauged window heads.
