Introduction

In t*e course o" (ivil +ngineering, brickwork laborator# is t*e basic subject t*at all civil

engineering student need to take. T*is is to ensure t*e "uture civil engineer understand t*e

brickwork and -ake t*e- -ore easil# to understand or clear about t*eir "urt*er stud# subject.

T*e purpose o" t*is report is to understand t*e sa"et# o" brickwork laborator# "or ensure t*e

sa"et# o" student w*en undergo brickwork. T*e second purpose o" t*e report is to understand

t*e tools used in brickwork and t*e "unction o" t*e tools in brickwork.

T*e description o" t*e sa"et# o" laborator# and t*e "unction o" tools are listed in t*e report.

inall#, t*e understanding o" t*e sa"et# laborator# and tools are i-portant be"ore we start our

brickworks.

Conclusion

Brickwork laborator# is i-portant as t*e basic "or our civil engineering course. T*e

understanding o" t*e sa"et# o" laborator# is i-portant to ensure t*e sa"et# o" students w*en

undergo brickwork. or ea-ple, wearing a sa"et# boot to protect our leg "ro- t*e "alling

bricks.

"ter t*at, t*e classi"# o" t*e uses and na-e o" tools used in laborator# is i-portant "or us as

a civil engineer because t*e classi"ication o" tools is t*e basic knowledge we *ave to know.

7e will not con"use t*e tools t*at need to use "or brickwork wit* t*e ot*ers works*op.

$astl#, understanding t*e "unction o" tools able "or us to classi"# t*e di""erent tools *ave t*e

di""erent uses. T*ere"ore, we are able to use t*e rig*t tools to "inis* t*e brickworks wit* no

dela# and proble-s.
