The demand for scarce raw material has been increased with rise of construction. An ideal raw material is clay, which is abundantly used in manufacturing bricks. The proposed study aims at making a brick blocks with clay-free materials. Therefore, instead of clay, waste additives such as sludge waste, construction and demolition waste, and fly-ash ...

An evaluation of the effects of additives and firing temperatures on clay bricks characteristics was studied. The two (2) additives used were sawdust ash (SDA) and iron ore tailing wastes (IOTW), and the five (5) firing temperatures of 400o C to 1200o C at intervals of 200o C were applied. The fired bricks were tested for linear shrinkage, water ab...

Pottery fragments from the Yumina archaeological site, Arequipa, Peru, were dated by means of thermoluminescence (TL) and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL). Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) technique was used to study the firing temperature using the iron signal (Fe3+) as a firing temperature reference. The ages of the samples were found...

The original firing temperatures of porcelain pieces unearthed from Tengxian Zhonghe kiln, Rongxian Chengguan kiln, Beiliu Lingdong kiln and Guiping Xishan kiln from the Song Dynasty (960–1279AD) of Guangxi were preliminarily studied by thermal expansion method. The experiment results show that the average firing temperature of Zhonghe kiln is 1186...

The review consists of four parts. Part I is about the thermal transformation in clay minerals under firing and about the properties of fired clay. The transformations in the clay are expressed quantitatively with the extent of conversion, α, which is the function of two parameters of firing process, time t and temperature T: α = f(t, T). Part II i...

The structural transformations of kaolin-aluminium slag mixtures during heating were studied using differential thermal analysis (DTA), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The amount of formed mullite increases with the firing te...

Fired bricks have been used for construction purposes in China for at least two thousand years. Since themid-19th century the manufacture of bricks has shifted from an old to a new system. The unique Chineseblue brick has been gradually replaced by the European red brick and other modern products. This studyfocuses on Shanghai as a representative c...

The Middle Uruk phase in Mesopotamia (3600–3500 bc) has been characterised by the massive production of “bevelled rim bowls” (BRBs). They are characterised by their similar shape and volume in Mesopotamia and surroundings. However, their production method has not been studied in detail, including the firing temperature. The determination of the fir...

Particle induced gamma-ray emission (PIGE) and particle induced X-ray emission (PIXE) methods using proton beams from tandem accelerator were applied for chemical analysis of sixteen archaeological clay potteries. The samples were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy to obtain firing temperature. PIGE method was used for determi...
