Record number: 12, Textual support number: 2 OBS
L'argile à briques est abondante au Canada; mais, dans les calcaires on doit la choisir avec soin, car certaines couches sont inutilisables à cause de la présence de nodules de calcaire. Quand l'argile est cuite, ces nodules forment de la chaux vive, qui s'éteint lentement en produisant en même temps un gonflement et un éclatement de la brique, ou de la tuile. 3, record 12, French, - argile%20%C3%A0%20briques
