600 : BRICKWORK FOR STRUCTURES A. Methodology A1 General Brickwork 123 Quality Assurance Handbook for Rural Roads 1. Soak all bricks for a minimum period of one hour before use and remove from tank sufficiently in advance so that they are skin dry before actual laying. 2. Before laying the bricks in foundation, hack the top surface of the foundation block, clean, wet and spread a layer of mortar of 12 mm (minimum) thickness, to prepare the surface. In case of masonry works resting on rock base, lay a leveling layer of 150 mm (average) thickness in concrete of M10 grade. 3. Lay all brickwork in English bond, even and true to line, plumb or specified batter and level. Break all joints in successive courses and lay joints accurately. 4. Lay all bricks with frogs up, if any on a full bed of mortar. Slightly press the bricks so that the mortar gets into all hollow space of bricks to ensure proper adhesion. Flush all joints and pack with mortar, to fill all hollow spaces. 5. Build brickwork in uniform layers so that no part of brickwork shall rise more than one metre above the general construction level, to avoid unequal settlement and improper jointing. 6. Remove all loose bricks and mortar while joining partially set or entirely set brick masonry with new one and roughen and wet with cement slurry to achieve proper bond. In case of vertical and inclined joints, achieve proper bond by inter locking the bricks. 7. Tool all joints on exposed faces to give a concave finish, the thickness of joint not exceeding 10 mm. 8. Keep masonry work in cement mortar constantly moist on all faces for a minimum period of seven days. Leave the top of masonry work flooded with water at the close of the day. During hot weather wet or cover all finished or partly completed work to prevent rapid drying of brickwork. Maintain watering and curing at the close of day’s work or for other period of cessation of works. 9. Erect single scaffolding for plastering, pointing and any finishing in which one end of the putlogs/pole shall rest in the hole provided in the header course of brick masonry. Provide double scaffolding having two independent supports clear of the work when brick work is exposed and not to be finished. A2 Brick masonry arch 1. Erect scaffolding to withstand design loads and allowing approach to each part of work. 2. Erect centering to the correct curvature, supported on joints themselves or independently from the ground below. 3. Lay full scale shape of arch on a leveled platform near the site and mark size of brick and mortar. Place alternate brick lengthwise and widthwise in outer rings of arch. Place remaining bricks in the inner part of arch to have uniform length.
