This document provides an introduction and overview of bricks, including their composition, types, properties, and uses. It discusses the main ingredients that make up clay bricks, such as alumina, silica, lime, and iron oxide. Bricks are classified based on their quality after burning, with first class bricks being the hardest and used for important structures. Other types discussed include hollow bricks, fly-ash bricks, refractory bricks, and perforated bricks. The properties of good burnt clay bricks are that they are uniformly burnt and hard with high compressive strength.
This document provides information about brick and stone building materials. It discusses the brief history of bricks, the types of bricks including sun-dried, burnt bricks in various classes. It also describes different brick bonds, standard brick sizes used in various countries and the types of stones including sedimentary, metamorphic and igneous stones. The key types of sedimentary stones discussed are limestone, sandstone, soapstone and fossil stone.
Materials & Methods of Construction - CE145Saqib Imran
This document provides a detailed classification of different types of bricks based on various factors such as quality, manufacturing process, raw materials, intended use, weather resistance, and shape. It identifies several classes of bricks including first, second, and third class bricks based on quality standards. It also discusses different types of bricks such as burnt clay bricks, fly ash clay bricks, concrete bricks, sand-lime bricks, and firebricks which vary according to their raw material composition. Bricks are further classified based on factors like intended location of use, weather resistance requirements, and special shapes required for applications like rounded edges, air circulation, drainage, and wall capping.
A brick is building material used to make walls, pavements and other elements in masonry construction. Traditionally, the term brick referred to a unit composed of clay, but it is now used to denote rectangular units made of clay-bearing soil, sand, and lime, or concrete materials. Bricks can be joined together using mortar, adhesives or by interlocking them.[1][2] Bricks are produced in numerous classes, types, materials, and sizes which vary with region and time period, and are produced in bulk quantities. Two basic categories of bricks are fired and non-fired bricks.
In this slide there is a brief discussion about Types , Making & examples of bricks & also plastering
About Brick - definition, manufacturing process, classification, types and Brick Masonry - terminology, types of bonds. ( Stretcher, Header, English and Flemish)
This document provides an overview of brick masonry, including technical terms, tools used, types of bonds and joints, advantages, and defects. It defines header, stretcher, course, and other bricklaying terms. The tools used in brick masonry like trowel, plumb bob, and mason's square are described. English and Flemish bonds are explained through diagrams. Different types of joints including weathered, concave, and struck are also defined. Advantages of brick masonry include cost, bonding strength, durability, and fire resistance. Defects can include sulphate attack, crystallization of salts, and corrosion of embedded metals.
Brick work involves arranging bricks laid in mortar to form a unified structure. Proper brick bonding is important to distribute loads and stresses throughout the structure. The main types of brick bonding are English bond (alternating headers and stretchers), Flemish bond (alternating headers and stretchers within the same course), and stretcher bond (all bricks laid as stretchers). Good brick bonding follows rules like using uniformly sized bricks, arranging bricks uniformly, minimizing small fragments, and having vertical joints directly above one another between courses.
Brick masonry involves laying bricks bonded together with mortar. Bricks are made from clay and other ingredients, formed into blocks. There are different brick bonds used in masonry walls like English, Flemish and stretcher bonds. Masonry joints are used to join the bricks. Proper bonding of bricks is important for strength and stability of walls. Defects can occur if bricks contain excessive salts or dampness causes corrosion of embedded metals.
Masonry refers to the construction of walls and structures using materials like stone, brick, concrete block laid using mortar. Different types of masonry units and bonding patterns are used for walls. Common masonry units include rubble, ashlar, and random ashlar stone as well as various types of bricks. Concrete hollow blocks are also widely used in construction. Tools used by masons include trowels, floats, straightedges, hammers, plumb rules, pocket rules, tampers and chisels.
This document summarizes the process of constructing a brick wall. It discusses the types of bonding used in brickwork, including stretcher bond, Flemish bond, and English bond. It also outlines the materials used, including clay bricks, concrete bricks, and mortar. The method of construction is explained in 20 steps, covering preparing the foundation, laying each row of bricks, and finishing the wall. Machineries like concrete mixers and tools like trowels, levels, and shovels are also discussed. Video observations showed workers distributing mortar, mixing concrete, and finishing walls.
A brick is a block or a single unit of a ceramic material used in masonry construction. Typically bricks are stacked together or laid as brickwork using various kinds of mortar to hold the bricks together and make a permanent structure.
Bricks are typically produced in common or standard sizes in bulk quantities. They have been regarded as one of the longest lasting and strongest building materials used throughout history.

The Science of Learning: implications for modern teachingDerek Wenmoth
Keynote presentation to the Educational Leaders hui Kōkiritia Marautanga held in Auckland on 26 June 2024. Provides a high level overview of the history and development of the science of learning, and implications for the design of learning in our modern schools and classrooms.
Decolonizing Universal Design for LearningFrederic Fovet
UDL has gained in popularity over the last decade both in the K-12 and the post-secondary sectors. The usefulness of UDL to create inclusive learning experiences for the full array of diverse learners has been well documented in the literature, and there is now increasing scholarship examining the process of integrating UDL strategically across organisations. One concern, however, remains under-reported and under-researched. Much of the scholarship on UDL ironically remains while and Eurocentric. Even if UDL, as a discourse, considers the decolonization of the curriculum, it is abundantly clear that the research and advocacy related to UDL originates almost exclusively from the Global North and from a Euro-Caucasian authorship. It is argued that it is high time for the way UDL has been monopolized by Global North scholars and practitioners to be challenged. Voices discussing and framing UDL, from the Global South and Indigenous communities, must be amplified and showcased in order to rectify this glaring imbalance and contradiction.
This session represents an opportunity for the author to reflect on a volume he has just finished editing entitled Decolonizing UDL and to highlight and share insights into the key innovations, promising practices, and calls for change, originating from the Global South and Indigenous Communities, that have woven the canvas of this book. The session seeks to create a space for critical dialogue, for the challenging of existing power dynamics within the UDL scholarship, and for the emergence of transformative voices from underrepresented communities. The workshop will use the UDL principles scrupulously to engage participants in diverse ways (challenging single story approaches to the narrative that surrounds UDL implementation) , as well as offer multiple means of action and expression for them to gain ownership over the key themes and concerns of the session (by encouraging a broad range of interventions, contributions, and stances).
2. Brick bonds are an
essential part of wall
structure.
"Brick" is a standard-
sized weight- bearing
building unit.
Several bricks are laid together
in stacks.
Mortar paste is placed on top of
each to form a firm bond.
Are laid to form the structure.
There are different ways in
which bricks are termed as
bonds.
Introduction

vertically with the long narrow
side of the brick exposed.
SAILOR: A brick laid vertically
with the broad face of the brick
exposed.
20. Rules for good brick bonding
Uniform in size.
Bricks arranged uniformly throughout the wall.
Bats are used as little as possible.
The bricks in the interiors of wall laid as headers,
that is, across the wall.
The lap not more than 2 and one-fourth(1/4)
inches.
The vertical joints in every other course should be
vertically over one another.
21. Bonds in brick-work
1. English bond.
2. Flemish bond.
3. Header bond.
4. Stretcher bond.
5. Facing bond.
6. English cross bond.
7. Brick on edge bond.
8. Dutch bond.
9. Raking bond.
10. Garden wall bond
22. FLEMISH-BOND
This bond has one stretcher
between headers, with the
headers centered over the
stretchers in the course below.
When a course begins with a
stretcher, the course will
ordinarily terminate with a
stretcher at the other end.
Brickwork that appears as
Flemish bond from both the
front and rear is Double
Flemish bond.
23. ENGLISH BOND
Bricks are laid in alternate
courses of headers and stretchers.
There is a chance of penetration
of damp through transverse
joints.
Queen closures are inserted next
to headers to produce overlap.
English bonds are the strongest
but it is to be noted that the
continuous vertical joints are to
be avoided.
Appearance is not as good as
Flemish bonds.
24. SUSSEX BOND
This bond has three
stretchers between every
header.
the headers are centered
above the midpoint of three
stretchers in the course
below.
Generally used as garden
walls and are relatively
cheaper than other bonds.
25. GARDEN-WALL BOND
Used for 9 inch wall.
Used when a fair face is
required on both sides.
Wall is composed of three or
four courses of stretchers
alternating with one of
headers.
It is mostly used in
construction of garden wall.
26. HEADER BOND
Heading or Header Bond is laid on
headers.
Used for round quick sweeps .
Should never be used in straight
work as it is very week.
This bond is used for facing of
curved surface and footings in
foundations.
27. STRETCHER BOND
Bricks are laid in stretchers.
Used in walls of half – brick in thickness.
Due to its constant occurrence in the last position
it is also called Chimney Bond, Running Bond.
This bond doesn’t develop proper internal bond.
28. QUALITIES OF GOOD BRICKS
1. Bricks should be uniform in shape & standard in size.
2. Bricks should give a clear metallic ringing sound when struck
with each other.
3. Bricks should show a bright homogeneous & free from voids.
4. Bricks should be well brunt and possess sharp edges.
5. Colour of the bricks should be uniform and bright.
6. Bricks should be sufficiently hard & no impression should be
left on bricks surface when scratched with finger nail.
7. Bricks should have crushing strength above 5.50N/mm”.
8. The bricks should not break when it dropped from a height of
about 1 m.
9. The bricks should not absorb water more than 20% by weight
when soaked in cold water for 24 hrs.
10. The bricks should not show any deposits of white salts when
allowed to dry in shade.
29. TESTS FOR BRICKS
1) Absorption:- The brick should not absorb water more
than 20% of dry weight.
2) Crushing strength:- As per BIS 1077-1957 the
minimum crushing strength of bricks is 3.5 N/mm2
3) Hardness :- Brick is treated to be sufficient hard if no
impression could be made on the surface of the brick by
finger nail.
4) Soundness :- Two bricks when struck with each other
should emit metallic ringing sound.
5) Structure :- It should be homogeneous ,compact ,and
free from any defects.
6) Shape & size :- Standard size (190 X 90 X 90 mm)
and shapes should be truly rectangular with sharp edges
and smooth surface.
30. DEFECTS IN BRICK
MASONRY
Sulphate attack :- Sulphate salts present in bricks
work react with alumina content of cement .It occur
in boundary walls.
Crystallization of salts from bricks :- Occur in
masonry made out of brick which contain excessive
soluble salts.This phenomenon is also known as
efflorescence.
Corrosion of embedded iron or steel :- Iron or
steel embedded in brick work gets corroded in the
presence of dampness .On corrosion the metal
expands in volume and tends to crack the brick work.
