The author also discusses the various techniques and machinery used in the manufacturing process, such as the steam-pressure process and the dry-press process.The book covers the physical and mechanical properties of sand-lime bricks, including their compressive strength, durability, and resistance to fire and moisture. It also explores the different uses of sand-lime bricks in construction, such as in the construction of walls, arches, and columns. The author provides examples of buildings constructed using sand-lime bricks, including the Royal Albert Hall in London.Furthermore, the book includes information on the economic aspects of sand-lime brick production, including the cost of raw materials, labor, and machinery.
