Different types of bricks can have different uses. The difference between bricks can improve the quality of the building and shorten the working period. Common brick Common brick consists of surface clays and shale. There are few standards for color and texture, but common bricks are classified into three categories.1. SW - Bad weather; is for bricks to be used for exterior construction in climates that combine humidity with subzero temperatures.2. MW – Moderate weather; It is for outdoor use in dry climates that may be subject to freezing temperatures.3. NW – No weather; it is for indoor use.Face BrickFace brick is similar to common brick with more attention to color and texture. Residential and commercial buildings are generally constructed of facing brick of one type or another. Refractory brick Refractory brick is built with refractory clay extracted underground. This type of clay has tremendous heat resistance, and firebrick is used exclusively in heat-intensive areas, such as fireplaces and oven linings. Glazed brick Glazed brick is a refractory brick coated with a ceramic glaze and then fired in a kiln. The resulting brick may have a glossy or matte finish. A wide range of color possibilities is available in the enamelled version
