raw earth
Traditional brick making in Ivory Coast.

Before mechanization, men removed clay with flat iron materials. After extracting the clay, grinding was carried out to refine the raw material. Thus, with the addition of water in large quantities, a homogeneous paste was obtained, with the desired plasticity. Kneading, first with your feet and then with powerful machines, allows you to remove the last stones present in the dough. This clay preparation phase ends with rotting, during which the clay is "resting".[28] "This step aims to ferment the organic particles in the clay in air, making them colloidal and increasing the plasticity of the dough."[29]

This manual work of producing the bricks gave it its characteristic shape. With the mechanization of the manufacturing process, it was possible to obtain bricks of different sizes, perfectly identical. An automatic cutting system shapes bricks from portions of clay. The brick then goes through a series of drying cycles that will prevent cracking and shattering during firing.[30]
Types of brick
Leaky brick

According to mass, bricks are divided into the following types:

Solid: type of brick without empty spaces.
Donkey: type of solid brick with dimensions: 0.23 x 0.11 x 0.07 m, which allows it to be arranged in various ways, giving rise to various types of devices.
Manual or rough: it is molded manually.
Bored.
Hollow: it is crossed internally by longitudinal or transverse channels.

Depending on the material used, bricks are divided into the following types:

Dutch: type of brick that has a glazed appearance.
Floating: made with porous magnesium and silica, it is less dense than water, so it floats.
Refractory: made with refractory material, which makes it resistant to heat.
Glass: made with two layers of glass and air between them.

In Brazilian brickworks, the most common types of brick manufacturing are bricks with holes, which can vary from 4, 6 or 8 holes, or using brick without holes, popularly known as brick.

Also in Brazilian brickworks, bricks are classified by their color, with the lighter ones being baked, which is attributed a higher financial value, the darker ones being annealed, which is attributed a lower financial value, and, soon after , comes the defective bricks, which is up to the owner of the brickworks to judge whether they can be used or not and, if a buyer appears willing to take the leftovers, to assign a price for them.
