Task 1 Jose Zamora GAC
In general, there are 7 steps in the production of the bricks, beginning with the digger of clay and
ending with the delivery of the bricks.
To begin, the clay that is used to make the bricks is dug from the ground by a digger. Then this clay
is put into a metal grid, which is used to break up the clay into small pieces with a roller.
After doing that, sand and water are added to the clay and this mixture is made into bricks by
using a wire cut or putting it into a mold. Next, these bricks are placed in a drying oven to dry
between 24 and 48 hours.
In the following stage, the bricks go through in a kiln at a moderate and then a high temperature
(between 200c to 1300c) and then go through a cooling process.
