Hosted by Thames Valley Brick

Location: Laurentian Main campus, room C-101


The focus of this presentation is to provide understanding of the uses and benefits of hard-fired clay face brick and thin brick. We will look at production changes to better understand hard-fired clay's place in our modern builds.

Learning Objectives

  1. Learn about changes to the production of clay brick and how they affect the product.
  2. Understand how changes allow hard-fired clay brick to fit into a greener build.
  3. Gain an understanding of several types of production of thin brick, and how they affect a product's application options from mortar-applied thin brick to brick cast in place precast.
  4. Learn to understand how thin brick can be used in Canadian Prestressed Concrete Institute (CPCI) precast jobs, from design to installation.
