The picture shows the steps of the brick manufacturing process associated with building industries.

Overall

, the various steps of the operation can be put into 7 major phases namely digging, preparation, shaping, drying, transferring to kilns, packaging and delivery. The entire process begins with digging out the raw material known as clay with the help of a digger. The clay lumps are

then

placed on a metal grid so as to break the massive chunks of clay into smaller ones, which fall onto the roller from the metal grid. To add on, sand and water are added. Here, there are two ways to achieve the rectangular shape of the brick one of which is cutting the homogenous mixture with a wire cutter and the other option is forming bricks in moulds. In the following, several dozens of bricks are placed in a drying oven for approximately 1 to 2 days. Later, they are converted to high-temperature kiln chambers prior to being cooled for 48 to 72 hours.
