 A '''brick''' is a type of block used to build walls, pavements and other elements in masonry construction. Properly, the term brick denotes a block composed of dried [[clay]], but is now also used informally to denote other chemically cured construction blocks. Bricks can be joined using mortar, adhesives or by interlocking them. Bricks are produced in numerous classes, types, materials, and sizes which vary with region and time period.

			=== Firing ===
			A mold is created out of a stiff material (often, [[Wood\|wood)]] in the desired shape of the brick. A common shape is a [[wikipedia:Rectangular_cuboid\|rectangular prism]] with side lengths in a ratio of 1:1:2. Wet [[clay]] is pressed into the mold and allowed to dry.

			The dry clay brick is then fired by placing it in extreme heat, often from a [[kiln]]. This alters its physical properties and makes it stronger, suitable for use as a building material.
