To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Cream- colored brick, made of calcareous clays, such as the Milwaukee brick, were also widely employed at one time. But in recent years buff-burning, semi-refractory and refractory clays have found wide-spread favor among pressed-brick manufacturers, partly on account of their color and partly because coloring materials can be effectively added to them. Manganese in powdered or granular form is the coloring agent most commonly employed. Enameled Brick. The clays used for these are similar to th...ose employed in the manufacture of buff pressed brick. The enamel is an artificial mixture which must conform to the clay body to avoid cracking or scaling off of the coat. It is in turn covered by a glaze. METHODS OF BRICK MANUFACTURE. These may be briefly taken up in order to point out their influence on the character of the products and some other details of importance to the architect or engineer. The methods employed in the manufacture of common and pressed brick are usually similar, the differences being chiefly in the selection of material, degree of preparation and amount of care taken in burning.
