What is "brickwork"?
Brickwork is the process of constructing structures using bricks, which are small, rectangular blocks made from clay, concrete, or other materials. This technique involves laying bricks in a specific pattern, usually with mortar, to create walls, arches, or other architectural features. Brickwork is valued for its strength, durability, and thermal properties, providing excellent insulation and fire resistance. It can be used in both residential and commercial buildings, often contributing to a structure's aesthetic appeal through various colors, textures, and bonding patterns. Proper brickwork is essential for ensuring the stability and longevity of a building.
