- "Brick clamp" also refers to a device (usually powered) to lift quantities of bricks.
A brick clamp is an traditional method of baking bricks, done by stacking the unbaked bricks with fuel under or among them and then setting the fuel on fire.[1] The clamp is considered a type of kiln. If the clamp is insulated by packing earth or mud around it, it becomes a scove kiln.[2]
