DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The U.S. Bricks, Blocks and Pavers Market report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offerings.
This comprehensive study examines the U.S. Bricks, Blocks and Pavers industry by product, market, application, and region.Provides historical data for 2010, 2015, and 2020, as well as forecasts for 2025 and 2030.”Demand” is defined as production plus imports minus exports and is synonymous with terms such as “sales” and “apparent consumption.” Data are presented in millions of dollars and millions of units.
For the purposes of this study, the dimensions of the bricks are defined as 3-5/8 inches x 2-1/4 inches x 7-5/8 inches.These are referred to in the industry as “standard brick units” and the production of other sizes of clay bricks is converted into equivalent standard brick units.
Paver unit requirements are also given in standard brick unit sizes, but it is important to note that pavers are typically laid with the largest face exposed, not the long, narrow face (i.e. the height of the brick) that bricks are usually laid with. face less than the depth of the bricks in the wall).Likewise, block units are given in standard units of 7-5/8″ x 7-5/8″ x 15-5/8″, including interlocking wall block units.
When the product is laid in a building wall in a standard way (called the “stretcher” orientation when laying building bricks), both standardized measurements are given in the order depth, height and length.Also, the dimensions given are actual dimensions.The nominal size is slightly larger, usually the next full inch, and includes the mortar allowance between each unit.
This category also includes glazed bricks, hollow bricks, thin bricks (brick veneer), etc., which are not subdivided in the study.For the purposes of this report, refractory bricks and glass blocks are excluded.
Pavers are primarily made of concrete, although they are also made from alternative materials such as recycled plastic.Both types are included in this report.
Bricks, blocks and pavers have a variety of applications, most related to construction.Leading applications include:
