| Use advice for data set | When utilizing this data set, users must take into account the specific context of the shale hollow brick manufacturing process, particularly the billet making stage. The data should be used in Life Cycle Assessment studies that require production and emission coefficients tailored to the sintered bricks and building blocks sector. Care should be exercised in applying the data to ensure that it fits the scope of the intended assessment (e.g., applicable geographical boundary, temporal frame, and technological relevance). The conversion ratio provided in the EIA report for bricks per tonne should be applied when comparing to other data sets or in calculations involving material throughput. |
| Technical purpose of product or process | This data set corresponds to the production of shale hollow bricks, specifically focusing on the billet making process used in brick production. Shale hollow bricks are commonly used in the construction industry for building walls, facades, and partition structures due to their lightweight, thermal insulation, and soundproofing properties. The process is tailored to high-volume manufacturing, as suggested by an annual production figure of 80 million bricks. |
