Bricks
Bricks will categorized with different used:
load bearing wall Non-Load bearing wall Insulation wall Covering wall.
Selection of bricks based on their using. Brick shape : 4 side geometric with length 2 x from width. The thickness is 2/3 of width Standard size of bricks is 215 x 102.5 x 65 mm Its can made from clay, sand & lime, cement mortar

Advantages of bricks : * Brick will not burn, buckle or melt. * Brick will not rot and allow Termites to invade. * Brick will not rust and corrode. * Brick will not dent. * Brick will not fade from the Sun's UV Rays. * Brick will not be damaged by high winds, rain or hail. * Brick will not require constant maintenance. * Brick will not devalue. * Brick will not limit your personal expression. * Brick will not limit your design options.
Bricks
Manufacture - 4 stages
Material preparation Manufacturing drying Firing Preparation: material (clay) washed and grinding (fineness)
Sample of grinding machine for clay
Brick
Manufacturing : Clay will grinded with 15% of water. The clay will be pushed through the mould base on the shape. After that, Clay will cut to get a standard size of brick using wire. Sometimes, bricks will produced using big mould that clay will be press that using hydraulic machine (This method, clay will grind 10% of water) or without hydraulic press (with 30% of water)

After bricks in form, identification or perforation to the bricks. Drying : Wet unit bricks will be drying in space or room with control temperature to make sure the bricks in complete dry.
Batu Bata
Firing : Dry bricks, was compile in kiln to firing process with 600oC (temperature). This is for burn the carbon and sulfur that have remain.After that, temperature will increase to 900oC to get a vetrification process. Normally, vitrification process occurred around 800oC. Bricks become hard/strong after vitrification process.

Type of Bricks
Clay Bricks Classified in 3 groups : normal brick, face brick, and engineering brick. Normal brick These are ordinary bricks which are not designed to provide good finished appearance or high strength. They are therefore in general and cheapest bricks available. Face brick - These are designed to give attractive appearance, hence they are free from imperfection such as cracks. Its produces in variety of color. Its no need plaster when used as wall. 15

Engineering Brick These are design base on engineering characteristic. Its designed primarily for strength and durability. They are high density and well fired. Normally, its will be used as retaining wall, load bearing wall and sewerage.

Sand-lime brick : These are made by using mix of lime and sand that ratio is 1:8. Brick will curing in autoclave in 8 hours That curing will produced high compressive strength and more hard brick. These used for wall that will exposed in water with higher compressive strength Mortar brick: Made with mix of cement, sand and water. These will using steel or wood mould to form it. Normally, the design are not produce a good appearance and come out with rough surface. 21

Brick Test
To control brick quality.
Brick tests : Compressive strength, Water absorption, Ujian penentuan garam terlarut, Efflorescence test.
Compressive strength test: These using compression machine with covered with two sheets of plywood. Water Absorption Test: Vacuum test or boiled the sample (brick) for 5 hours. Percentage of water absorption to dry weight of brick was calculated normally the range is 3 30% Ujian Garam terlarut: Chemical analysis 22

Brick Test
Efflorescence Test: To analyzed the efflorescence salt at the surface of brick. The sample will string by rubber except the bric surface. menganalisis garam terhablur di permukaan sampel. Iaitu dengan membungkus sampel kecuali satu permukaan terdedah. Telungkupkan kelalang berisi air suling ke permukaan selama 24 jam, kemudian alih kelalang dan biarkan permukaan kering sendiri dalam makmal selama beberapa hari. Kemudian periksa permukaan dan kira peratusan garam terperoi di permukaan. Tiada - tiada kelihatan garam

Brick laying
Material that was used in mortar (mix of cement or lime with sand or both Ratio; binder : sand = 1:3 Thickness or mortar normally in range 6.5mm - 9mm

Plastering
These have been done after brick lying finishing. The purpose is to get a smooth surface and uniformity in color. The wall should scratch to get a rough surface that will easy when plastering work Materials that was used : lime, cement Portland, gypsum Plastering work should be in two layers, which one base layer and finishing layer. Base layer ; cement :Lime : sand = 1:2:8-9 @ 1:1: 56 @ cement : sand = 1:3 @ gysum : sand = 1:1-3 @ gypsum : lime : sand = 1:3:7-9 Finishing layer; lime : gypsum = 1: 0.25 - 0.5 36
