This brick, in comparison with ceramic red brick, has not only a different composition of raw materials and manufacturing technology, but also has other physical and mechanical characteristics and the area of application. It is made hollow and full -bodied. The hollow type of silicate brick has less weight and, accordingly, less thermal conductivity, which allows you to build less massive walls. External and internal walls and partitions are being built from it. Its individual types are used to clad the facades of buildings as tiles in the bathroom. For laying the front surfaces of the external walls, one and a half or uniform colored brick, painted throughout volume, is used.
