In architectural drawing it is sometimes necessary to delineate the material of which the walls, &c. , are constructed. Thus, in EXAMPLE 52, fig. 52, a series of bricks built on one another is deli- neated. The bricks are so disposed as to ' break joint/ as it is termed ; LL fig. 52. Fig. 53. that is, the solid part of b is placed over the joint formed by the juxta- position of the bricks a and c. In ordinary work, bricks are used in two ways as ' headers' and ' stretchers' the ' headers' being... placed across the wall, the ' stretchers' running along in the direction of its length. Thus, in EXAMPLE 53, fig. 53, suppose a & to be the line of wall, the bricks ccc are ' stretchers, ' and d a ' header. ' The size of a brick of the ordinary dimensions is 9 inches long, 4^- inches wide, and 3 inches thick. Brick work is generally laid in two kinds of bond, termed 'English' and 'Flemish bond. By the term 'bond' is meant the tie between the various members of a brick wall, and which is generally secured by the proper disposition of the bricks ; this is effected by the arrangement of the ' headers' and * stretchers.
