Methods of statement for brick masonry working.

2-Introduction:

Brickwork is the process of stacking blocks with a


special system and linking them together with mortar to
obtain a single block with all its parts cohesive in a way that
ensures good resistance to the pressures to which it will be
exposed. The mortar’s pressure tolerance must not be less
than the brickworks used in construction.

Different types of bricks play an important role in the field of


engineering construction as they are widely used in
construction. Here are some of their basic uses:

*Construction and construction of walls of various sizes.
