Are sintered brick concrete bricks?

Answer:

Sintered brick: brick made of clay, shale, coal gangue or fly ash, made by molding and roasting at high temperature. Bricks used for masonry, load-bearing and non load bearing walls are collectively called sintered bricks.According to the raw materials, they are divided into sintered clay brick, sintered fly ash brick, sintered coal brick and so on.A sintered brick with a solid or void ratio of less than 25% is called a sintered ordinary brick.The production and use of ordinary clay brick has been in China for more than 3000 years. Nowadays, ordinary clay bricks still dominate the wall materials used in construction projects. Although the ordinary clay brick has many disadvantages, due to its low cost, simple process, design and construction technology is mature and people's inertia and other reasons, the ordinary clay brick for quite a long period of time, especially in rural areas, is still one of the main wall materials.
Many kinds of brick, according to the raw materials used for clay brick, shale, coal gangue brick, fly ash brick, lime sand bricks and slag brick;According to the production process can be divided into sintered brick and non fired brick, in which non fired brick can be divided into compressed brick, steam brick and autoclaved brick;With or without holes, ordinary bricks, porous bricks and hollow bricks can be divided into ordinary bricks.
Fired bricks are not concrete bricks.According to the different production process of bricks into sintered brick and non sintered brick. Sintered brick in China has more than two thousand years of history, is still a very wide range of wall materials.
