Brickwork refers to the construction technique that uses bricks as the primary building material. Bricks are typically made from clay, which is shaped and then fired in a kiln to create a durable product. This method is commonly used for walls, pavements, and other structures due to its strength and aesthetic appeal. In brickwork, various patterns and styles can be employed, such as English bond or Flemish bond, to enhance the visual interest of a building. Mortar, a mixture of sand, water, and cement, is used to hold the bricks together, providing stability and weather resistance to the finished structure.
