Hudgins, Committee Chair Katherine Pemberton Andrew Kohr Dr. Nic Butler ABSTRACT The fortification walls that once protected the bustling colonial port of Charles Town, South Carolina lie buried under a thriving, modern city. Archaeological excavations and archival research within the last decade have made significant progress in unearthing information previously lost to development and memory. These methods have experienced limitations, however, since access to the fortifications is obstructed by both historic and modern infrastructure. The study of the brick collected from the walled fortifications presents potential for new interpretations of development of Charleston’s colonial walls. Brick samples from the walled fortification were collected for testing, as were brick samples from local historic sites whose construction dates corresponded with time periods of the wall’s use. Brick samples were analyzed using X- ray fluorescence, X-ray diffraction, colorimetry, and water absorption to determine individual chemical and mineralogical compositions that could then be compared. The comparison of these sample sets identified broad patterns of sourcing and dates. The data clarifies where the bricks used to defend Charleston during the seventeenth and eighteenth century were being made and how their source changed in response to Charleston’s emergence as a world class city. ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This study could not have been realized without the advice and encouragement of many special persons to whom I would like to acknowledge and extend my sincerest gratitude. First and foremost, I would like to thank my thesis advisor and dig buddy, Dr. Carter Hudgins, whose guidance and advice were instrumental in developing and bringing this study to life. I would also like to thank my committee members Katherine Pemberton, Dr. Nic Butler, and Andrew Kohr for providing me with their expertise and the resources needed to complete this study. I would especially like to thank Dr. Stephanie Crette for allowing me to use all the equipment at Warren Lasch with no hesitation, spending time teaching me new skills, and helping me sort out all of my results. Also, sincere thanks to Dr. Denis Brosnan and the staff at the National Brick Reserach Center for graciously testing my samples on their own time and providing me with exemplary data. Last, but certainly not least, I would like to express my love and appreciation for my family and friends who have always been pillars of support and encouragement and who have always been genuinely interested in my sometimes unusual endeavors. I would especially like to thank my mother whose constant sense of humor not only puts a smile on my face but makes any situation seem less daunting. Your wisdom, courage, and excitement inspires me everyday. Finally, to Kevin, whose support, encouragement, patience, and understanding through this process has helped me complete this journey and look forward to the next. Thank you. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS Page TITLE PAGE ....................................................................................................................i ABSTRACT .....................................................................................................................ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ..............................................................................................iii LIST OF FIGURES ........................................................................................................vi LIST OF TABLES ........................................................................................................viii CHAPTER I.

  • Brick Masonry Brick
    Brick Masonry Brick • Brick is a basic building unit which is in the form of rectangular block in which length to breadth ratio is 2 but height can be different. • Normal size (nominal size) • 9''×4½" ×3" • Architectural size (Working size) • 81⅟16" x 4⁵⁄₁₆" x 21⅟16" • Brick Masonary The art of laying bricks in mortor in a proper systematic manner gives homogeneous mass which can withstand forces without disintigration, called brick masonary. Terminology: The surfaces of a brick have names: Top and bottom surfaces are beds. Ends are headers and header faces. Sides are stretchers or stretcher faces. Bricks are the subject of British Standard BS 3921. Brick Sizes A standard metric brick has coordinating dimensions of 225 x 112.5 x 75 mm (9''×4½" ×3“) called nominal size and working dimensions (actual dimensions) of 215 x 102.5 x 65 mm (8.5“ * 4 *2.5) called architectural size Brick Sizes Brick Sizes The coordinating dimensions are a measure of the physical space taken up by a brick together with the mortar required on one bed , one header face and one stretcher face. The working dimensions are the sizes to which manufacturers will try to make the bricks. Methods of manufacture for many units and components are such that the final piece is not quite the size expected but it can fall within the defined limits. This can be due to the things like shrinkage, distortion when drying out, firing etc. The difference between the working and coordinating dimensions of a brick is 10mm (0.5“)and this difference is taken up with the layer of mortar into which the bricks are pressed when laying.

The government's Construction Sector Deal challenges the industry to reduce construction cost by 1/3 and construction time by 1/2, whilst improving quality. One of the key drivers identified to achieve these targets is the development and expansion of Modern Methods of Construction. Brick manufacturers have been at the forefront of developing MMC systems for several years. Clay brick has undergone a dramatic transformation during the 20th century. From solid wall construction to the modern cavity wall, with improved levels of insulation and reduced water penetration. CAUTION REQUIRED The sector needs to be mindful that during the push for quicker and cheaper we don't compromise the quality of what is built, as has happened with previous attempts to develop MMC. One of the principal benefits of hand laid clay brick is that it has a very long history of quality performance with a large and proven supply chain. Assessing when it is appropriate to use a MMC system, to gain maximum Traditional solid wall construction benefits, has historically been a complex issue.
