To begin with, the clay used to make the bricks is dug up from the ground by a
large digger. This clay is then placed onto a metal grid, which is used to break up
the clay into smaller pieces with the help of a roller. Following this, sand and water
are added to the clay, and this mixture is turned into bricks by either placing it into
a mould or using a wire cutter. Next, these bricks are placed in an oven to dry for
24 48 hours.
In the subsequent step, the bricks go through a heating and cooling process. They
are heated in a kiln at a moderate and then a high temperature (ranging from 200c
to 1300c), followed by a cooling process in a chamber for 2 3 days. Finally, the
bricks are packed and delivered to their destinations.
Overall, there are seven stages in the process which makes it simple yet lengthy,
where clay is the main ingredient used and heating the bricks at a particular
temperature is the most significant step.
