I'm not a fan of the strong anti-brick sentiment in this video.
Let's rise up in protest? LOL
I'm entirely convinced that you and this guy are somehow the same voice but different
The strong anti-brick sentiment isn’t a fan of you...
The insane engineering of the brick
Tell us how to engineer a brick please. Btw love both your guys videos
The FBI: He ain’t fooling us this time fellas, let’s watch the entire thing.
Those fools
Why would they watch the whole thing? HAI has never covered up any leaked information with bricks??
god dammit he got us again!
lmaoo
It's actually a clever code. If you take the first letter from each of the first 19 words you get "tisvabniybetcfaymka." If you take the secret code "h spfyfvtuuuqy cbdj" and add each letter to the letters in the coded message, you get "billgateswroteabook." So there, let's get him.
For those who don’t know:
The term brick refers to small units of building material, often made from fired clay and secured with mortar, a bonding agent comprising of cement, sand, and water. Long a popular material, brick retains heat, with-stands corrosion, and resists fire. Because each unit is small-usually four inches wide and twice as long, brick is an ideal material for structures in confined spaces, as well as for curved designs. Moreover, with minimal upkeep, brick buildings generally last a long time.
For the above-cited practical reasons and because it is also an aesthetically pleasing medium, brick has been used as a building material for at least 5,000 years. The first brick was probably made in the Middle East, between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers in what is now Iraq. Lacking the stone their contemporaries in other regions used for permanent structures, early builders here relied on the abundant natural materials to make their sun-baked bricks. These, however, were of limited use because they lacked durability and could not be used outdoors; exposure to the elements caused them to disintegrate. The Babylonians, who later dominated Mesopotamia, were the first to fire bricks, from which many of their tower-temples were constructed.
From the Middle East the art of brickmaking spread west to what is now Egypt and east to Persia and India. Although the Greeks, having a plentiful supply of stone, did not use much brick, evidence of brick kilns and structures remains throughout the Roman Empire. However, with the decline and fall of Rome, brickmaking in Europe soon diminished. It did not resume until the 1200s, when the Dutch made bricks that they seem to have exported to England. In the Americas, people began to use brick during the sixteenth century. It was the Dutch, however, who were considered expert craftsmen.
Prior to the mid-1800s, people made bricks in small batches, relying on relatively inefficient firing methods. One of the most widely used was an open clamp, in which bricks were placed on a fire beneath a layer of dirt and used bricks. As the fire died down over the course of several weeks, the bricks fired. Such methods gradually became obsolete after 1865, when the Hoffmann kiln was invented in Germany. Better suited to the manufacture of large numbers of bricks, this kiln contained a series of compartments through which stacked bricks were transferred for pre-heating, burning, and cooling.
Brickmaking improvements have continued into the twentieth century. Improvements include rendering brick shape absolutely uniform, lessening weight, and speeding up the firing process. For example, modern bricks are seldom solid. Some are pressed into shape, which leaves a frog, or depression, on their top surface. Others are extruded with holes that will later expedite the firing process by exposing a larger amount of surface area to heat. Both techniques lessen weight without reducing strength.
However, while the production process has definitely improved, the market for brick has not. Brick does have the largest share of the opaque materials market for commercial building, and it continues to be used as a siding material in the housing industry. However, other siding materials such wood, stucco, aluminum, plaster, and vinyl are strong competitors because they cost up to 50 percent less, and some (notably stucco and plaster) offer built-in insulation. Yet these systems can cost up to 1.75 times that of brick, which also requires less maintenance. Other materials that compete with brick despite their usually higher cost include precast concrete panels, glass, stone, artificial stone, concrete masonry, and combinations of these materials, because advances in manufacturing and design have made such materials more attractive to the builder. According to the U.S. Industrial Outlook, the use of brick as a siding material for single-family homes dropped from 26 percent in 1984 to 17 percent in 1989.
Natural clay minerals, including kaolin and shale, make up the main body of brick. Small amounts of manganese, barium, and other additives are blended with the clay to produce different shades, and barium carbonate is used to improve brick's chemical resistance to the elements. Many other additives have been used in brick, including byproducts from papermaking, ammonium compounds, wetting agents, flocculents (which cause particles to form loose clusters) and deflocculents (which disperse such clusters). Some clays require the addition of sand or grog (pre-ground, pre-fired material such as scrap brick).
A wide variety of coating materials and methods are used to produce brick of a certain color or surface texture. To create a typical coating, sand (the main component) is mechanically mixed with some type of colorant. Sometimes a flux or frit (a glass containing colorants) is added to produce surface textures. The flux lowers the melting temperature of the sand so it can bond to the brick surface.
To conclude, brick is bad
this comment XD it doesn't have a "show more" or "show less" option
thanks. was searching for the facts of bricks. liked the frog part 👍
Bro tis sooo long paragraph
I read the whole thing. Was totally worth it!
That took me like 10 minutes to read. YOU must be the one behind spamming bricks into the suggestions box
Y'all can imagine how I felt discovering this channel with this video then having to spend a week binging this guy just to understand the joke
Lol awesome

@@nicreven before this video, they kept getting comments asking for a video about bricks. Now they have a video about bricks

You missed a fact Sam, 33% of pigs build houses out bricks.
and the other 66% die
the missing 1% is the wolf
Nooo your sample size is skewed
Hello vegans, if PIGS are so SMART, then why do 66% OF THEM BUILD HOUSES OUT OF INNEFECTIVE MATERIALS?
In the original Story, the 2 other pigs were eaten by the wolf, ur welcome.
So then, about that brick tax? That sounded half interesting.
I know, right? I wanted to learn how the tax and upsized bricks played into our modern standards for brick size, and if you could date buildings by the size of their bricks. Guess I'll never know any of that now :(
@@CosRacecar Seriously! This isn't the brick video we wanted!
I loved the Hamilton references-
Well for starters England has never used cents, so that just goes to show the George IIIs mental decline started much earlier than we realized!

'We care about the environment but NOT about Sam's feelings.' Best quote in the whole video I swear.

So basically Sam just wanted to roast random company who didn't answer the phone, so he made 13-minute video about bricks. And even got that Wendover guy to bore the feds! Absolute legend.
Why even bother?

Lol
I'd guess several people at that company have had some meetings about phone calls.
It's not even a real company though
I fully expected you to say your Grandmother was a Brick.
This is the most chaotic yet informative video I’ve ever seen
Incredibly confusing. I smashed the dislike button
I like how this unironically looks like it took the most effort to make than any other video in this channel
yet, it only contained a reply to bills book and 2 calls and only 1 responded... that is all... maybe he hired a guy to make the jokes?
I know yeah...
It makes sense that the video that people will genuinely be excited for is the one that uses Bill Gates's money to be designed to look like an absolute fever dream.
@@EliteGeeks maybe Gates wrote the jokes? And the companies to talk sh$t about?
@@EliteGeeks I mean the standard information density of this channel was already pretty low, it's basically just a few fact sandwiched between 1 billion jokes. What I meant was the production value of it as in the better than usual editing and the fact that they actually hired a different voice actor other than sam etc
I get the feeling that Sam took it personally that the concrete people didn't call him back
Hmm what makes you say that?
Not a real company.
@@DugrozReports Yes but it is based on a company they tried to talk to it seems
I get the feeling, that they let a five year old write that part of the script 🤔
That joke overstayed its welcome, and then some. And then it was bitterly screamed at you. 10:52 So cringey.
Sam: We'll play their ad
TH-cam: Plays ad

"Guys literally only want one thing and it's fucking disgusting"
HAI: understood!
Whoa you have an old account
Reminds me of the song bricks
"Bricks, all white bricks, just hit a lick for 50 more bricks, bricks."
“They made a bricks video.”
No, you made a concrete video, bricks are fired from clay, not limestone.
Oh my gosh your right
came to say this too
The significance of mixing clay with limestone was not discussed either, and I'd like the hear about that
Unless that's all part of the bricks' conspiracy!
Yeah, I am honestly disappointed. It was interesting, but I have seen about three videos about concrete recently that covered all these points. This was about concrete not bricks.
The interns wrote calcium as "CA" instead of "Ca". Time to throw a bio brick on them.
Right after he/she geta back from that unscheduled bathroom break.
The secret ingredient is actually California rather than calcium.
@@seneca983 Nah, the secret ingredient is actually itty bitty heavy cruisers.
So it involves Certificate Authorities? Good to know.
I'm fairly sure this is because in cement jargon, they don't use chemical symbols. Calcium is C, silicate is S, sulphate is $ (i think) etc. and the rest is assumed to be oxygen. Maybe they got it mixed up somewhere in their sources or maybe i'm just wrong lol
Dear Sam,
You know what is better than a video about bricks?
Two videos about bricks!

All jokes aside its really not. This is a video about climate change and him being pissed off at some company, it has nothing to do with bricks themselves.
New viewer here, can you explain this inside-joke about bricks on this channel?
@@SyenPie the gag is that in any HAI video that has info that, supposedly, needs to be obscured from the Government, it is prefaced by the same intro “This is a video about bricks...” then the segue (paraphrasing) “OK the CIA isn’t watching anymore”
And, predictably, half of the comment section responds insisting that HAI left us all hanging on the brick video.

I hate to be that guy, but so far it seems like this video is about concrete masonry units (or CMUs), not bricks. Bricks are made from clay. It seems pedantic, but as a civil engineer, there's actually a difference.
Edited to add: Finished the video. Yeah, that had almost nothing to with bricks, or even CMUs for that matter. This was mostly about concrete as a material. Still waiting on an actual video about bricks
Still, it was fun seeing ACI 301 referenced in a TH-cam video- I wasn't expecting that.

You actually made me look up the details of the brick tax
If I understand the lime cycle properly, then the same amount of carbon dioxide driven off during the heating of the limestone is then reabsorbed during the curing phase of the concrete.
Of course the fuel used to heat the limestone in the rotary kiln may also emit carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
I haven't been to a concrete plant much, but I often go to many asphalt plants that use rotary Kilns and they use either used engine oil, diesel fuel, or natural gas.
