The illustration demonstrates the linear process of how bricks are produced for the construction sector.
Overall, the process consists of 7 key steps, from digging the clay to loading to the delivery truck.
Initially, after the clay is excavated by utilizing a digger, the raw material is placed on a metal grid where it is filtered. Subsequently, sand and water are added to clay to create a mixture. Once this mixture can be shaped into bricks in two different ways either by using a wire cutter or the moulds, it is dried in a drying oven for between 24 and 48 hours.
In the following stage, the bricks are heated in a kiln in two phases. In the first phase, they are moderately heated from 200 degrees Celsius to 980 degrees Celsius. In the next phase, the hot bricks are exposed to a high temperature about 1300 degree Celsius. After the heating process is completed, they are cooled in a cooling chamber for around three days. Then, they are wrapped into the packages. Finally, the packages are delivered.
