A Study of Production Techniques of Bricks from the Royal Tomb of King Muryeong using Nondestructive Analysis
Abstract eng: This study examined the production techniques of bricks using nondestructive analysis and compared the results of mineralogical and geochemical analyses to recognize the significance and limits of nondestructive methods. The results of magnetic susceptibility, ultrasonic velocity and water absorption measurements provided major information on the provenance, compactness and weathering degree related to the firing temperature. Comparing the mineralogical and geochemical results of the bricks, it could be assumed that bricks from the royal tomb of King Muryeong were made of same raw materials and fired at 1,000 to 1,200 . It was also identified by the X-ray radiography observation that the clay was filled in the pattern side of the cast and pressured first and then other parts were filled with clay in the brick making process.
