This illustration depicts how to make bricks from clay.
The seventh step cycle begins with clay that is carried from ground and is used to make bricks and ends with the delivery of bricks.
In the first step, clay is used to make bricks, which is dug from the ground by a digger. Afterward, this clay is placed onto a metal grid, which is used to break up the clay into smaller pieces; a roller assists in this process.
Following this, sand and water are added to the clay, and this mixture is turned into two differing types of bricks by either placing into to a mould or using a wire cutter. Next, these bricks are placed in an oven to dry for 24–48 hours.
In the subsequent stage, 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 200°C to 1300°C),followed by a cooling process in a chamber for 2–3 days. Finally, the bricks are packed and delivered to their destinations.
