Q & A
According to the National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST), brick masonry can last a century. However, brick structures are known to exceed this, with some even belonging to the list of the world’s oldest standing structures.
Bricks are composed of non-flammable substances and are baked at 2000 degrees Fahrenheit, granting them fire resistance. While they won’t render a house entirely fireproof, they offer additional evacuation time and minimize the risk of extensive damage.
The National Institute of Standards and Technology and the Brick Industry Association (BIA) conducted fire tests to compare building materials. Traditional brick houses took a whole hour to be engulfed in flames, while some modern materials ignited within mere minutes.
Bricks are cherished for their natural red hue, and since they lack a painted exterior, their color remains constant. However, they might appear dirty over time, but proper cleaning can restore their original appearance. Avoiding power hosing is vital, as it may cause irreparable harm.
