Show UTAH'S CLAY INDUSTRY t ur tu r r 1 tt f k fin lUtah fire Clay Plant at a f sake C t Bri k Makin Plant at ati i Salt Lake City II I By LESLIE SQUIRES General Manager Utah Fire Clay Company HAZING developments of the A AMAZING clay industry In Utah will be witnessed if the advances of tho the last 80 years continue at anywhere anywhere anywhere any any- where near the same rate The pioneer dug his clay from the tho hillside trampled it in is layers cut it while wet into blocks and let the sun do the tho rest reat Houses built in of t adobe brick still stand towns and on farms proving not only the skill of the early brick- brick makers but the virtues of the clay they used From brick to tile was wasn wasa n R short step and as facilities facUlties improved im im- proved clay products were Vere multi multi- plied Utah is fortunate fortunato In having many kinds of clay If the right sort is 18 not available In one locality local ity tty it is 18 pretty sure to be present In another Six plants devoted exclusively to the manufacture of clay goods and i silica are aro now operating operating I ing in Utah not to speak of mall small local brick plants scattered throughout the state The major plants are located in Salt Lake City Ogden Provo Murray and Smithfield Their growing ever list of ot products Includes vitrIfied salt salt- glazed dazed sewer pipe and fittings farm drain tile silica brick fire firebrick firebrick firebrick brick assayers' assayers clay crucibles and andl l fire clay shapes for tor boilers baUers locomotives steel mills and foundries paving brick high grade bale and fire clay face k common common com com- mon man brick hollow building and partition blocks clay shingles wall coping flue lining and many special special cial dal designs p. p r Manufacture and sale of at the products products pro pro- products ducts give employment to an average average average aver aver- age of men the year around With an annual payroll of about The processes call for tor forthe tho the yearly production production- of about tons of clay to burn which fuel to the value of is con can umed For supplies power freight taxes and such expenses not less than is disbursed I Though Salt Lake valley smelt smelt- Sri era r and widespread building construction construction con can constitute a steady mar- mar tit tat sales ules of at specialties beyond the borders of at the state indicate the possibilities of expansion Silica brick la is 1 shipped to surrounding states and orders for crucibles and are received from all over the tho world Production facilities are ample for a growing business It is estimated estimated esti estl mated that with all plants operating lag ing a ft dally daily hour 8 shift at full capacity there would be manufactured manufactured each day enough facing and backing brick to construct 30 five five- room cottages pipe for 1 VA lAi miles s 1 of at sewer and tile the for 4 miles of drains Hollow blocks for smokestacks hundreds of feet tall taU and tile the for tor silos are made from clay Underground Under ground wiring is facilitated by clay conduits and the use of finer clays In the making of porcelain is beginning to bo recognized in Utah So far tar Utah county Is the best known source of ot ceramic material Clay banks of alluvial alluvia and glacial origin are found in Cache Weber Morgan Salt Lake and Utah counties coun coun- ties To date the tho production of fire clay has been confined to Utah county where the basic material Is carboniferous To make silica brick the goes to the Cambrian formation In Juab coun coun- ty In 1937 presents an astonishing contrast to the almost primitive methods of 1857 Describing Describing Des Des- a typical operation of today the manager of a large brick company company com corn pany says Starting at clay beds averaging 15 IS feet in thickness ten teams scrape up the cia clay and lay it on platforms Thence it Is ia hauled by electric trains to mixing and pulverIzing pulverizing pulverizing pul pul- pul- pul sheds From there it is lIS conveyed by endless belts to the bins where the right amount of at moisture Is added The next step is working the clay through the pug mills These are heavy cast Iron mixing mixing- machines which knead the clay to the proper consistency For molding into what are called green brick ick Attached to the end of the pug mills are forms torms or dies out of which come bricks of the correct length and height I To uTo make pressed brick the clay claya clayis is 11 a handled in much the same manner manner man man- ner except as it comes out of the mixing bins it is fed feel into massive I presses From the presses the I brick is conveyed to the kilns for burnIng A fire of powdered coal is a started at one end and carried the he entire length by forced draft When heated to 2200 degrees the brick are allowed to cool Wagons are lowered into the kiln by an electric crane loaded and set outside outside outside out out- side to be hauled by teams to their destination Ever since the day of ot the humble adobe Utah has been a brick I state Few parts parta of the Union have a higher percentage of brick structures Steel mills and sugar factorIes need refractory brick for theIr heir furnaces municipalities pipe for their sanitary sewers drainage drainage drainage drain drain- age districts tile the to reclaim their lands ands Thus one industry fosters foster many others An Investment of about It is estimated is represented by the plants in Utah devote exclusively to the manufacture manufacture
