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

The picture below demonstrates the

process

of production of

bricks

for the construction industry.

Overall

,

it is clear that

this

process

requires 8 steps, starting with digging the

clay

by using an excavator and ending with delivering the resulting fragments.

To begin

,

at the first stage

of the

process

, the

clay

is dug by an excavator,

then

collected

clay

goes through a metal grid, and the

clay

is

then

rolled. At the next stage, we can notice that water and sand are mixed together and after the resulting

clay

is

also

added into

this

mixture,

then

this

thing goes through a wire cutter to be the right shape or it is moulded.

Bricks

are dried in the oven for approximately 24-28 hours. The following step presents that the drying

process

consists of 3 different stages

such

as moderate,high and cooling.

Firstly

, the

bricks

are heated at a moderate temperature which is around 200-900 Celsius,

then

this

kiln transits to a high level of temperature (870-1300), and in the end, the

bricks

are cooled in the cool freezer for 48-72 hours. At the 7th stage of

this

process

, the resulting

bricks

are packaged, and

then

they are delivered by special trucks to the building companies.
