This Part of BS 3056 specifies the sizes of the following shapes of multi-purpose refractory bricks:
- squares;
- splits;
- tiles;
- straights;
- side arch bricks;
- end arch bricks;
- crown bricks.
NOTE 1 Information is also given on the combinations of size and material/quality that may be expected to be available, on arch-brick formulae (see Appendix A), on the combinations of sizes required to form circles of various diameters (see Appendix B), and on, information to be supplied by a purchaser (see Appendix C).
The volume of each standard size brick is given as supplementary information, in Table 1 to Table 7.
NOTE 2 The tolerances on the sizes are not specified in this Part of BS 3056, and may be the subject of agreement between manufacturer and purchaser.
NOTE 3 The titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover.
