The diagram illustrates the process that is used to manufacture bricks for the building industry. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant.

The illustration depicts how bricks used in the construction industry are manufactured.

Overall

, the manufacture consists of 7 steps, starting with the

clay

dug by digger tools, going through multiple drying and heating processes, and ending with the delivery of the bricks to the customer. The process starts with the mining of

clay

using industrial digger tools, which are

then

filtered using a metal grid to separate the

clay

from other unwanted materials. After adding sand and water into filtered

clay

, they are moulded using mould or cut into brick shapes using a wire cutter.

Subsequently

, they are placed inside a drying oven for about 24-48 hours. The process continues with the

clay

casts being heated using a big oven starting from moderate heat to high heat before going into a cooling chamber for around 48-72 hours. Once the bricks are cooled down, they will be packed and distributed to customers using delivery trucks.
