the shape of things to come
At Ibstock we view Special Shaped Bricks as the unique
design elements to knit brickwork together.
They provide architects and designers with the freedom
to create distinctive buildings, providing limitless design
solutions in clay masonry.
The Ibstock Specials section illustrates the
most popular British Standard and Ibstock
Special Shaped Bricks which are used by our
customers. These are arranged in the brochure
in alphabetical order and by special type.
The individual sections provide drawings and
dimension tables of the bricks in the standard
size options. All the fair faces of the specials
are shown as shaded areas.

arch bricks
special shapes | arch bricks
Arches have become a popular decorative
and practical feature of new construction
for both commercial and housing
developments. They can be used to
complement new brickwork or to match in
with existing brickwork in refurbishment
and renovation schemes.
Our standard range of span dimensions
gives a greater choice than the British
Standard. Canted and Bullnose profiles are
available as standard.
The arches illustrated here are a small
selection of those available. Different types
of arches to an architect’s own design can
easily be manufactured. Expert advice and
the provision of CAD drawings are available
through our Design Advisors.

Radial Bricks
Ibstock offers radial bricks in a wide range of
radii to give more choice and greater
potential for architectural detailing of both
buildings and landscaping.
Included is the transition brick which is
essential to avoid poor quality junctions
when curve changes to straight.

Shropshire RD.2 Radial Stretcher
RD.1 Radial Header
Ibstock specials expand the standard range of radii.
* Dimensions B and D in types RD.1 are segmental lengths. These bricks are intended for one brick thick walls in
header bond. Dimension B is derived from dimension A in RD.2 series, i.e. 226 – 10 (joint)

NOTE: Bonding - Note that RD.1 and RD.2 types cannot be used together in the same one brick thick wall either in
English or Flemish Bonds, to produce ideal alignment of the perpends on the concave face, except when the outside
radius exceeds 3m.

numbers of units in quadrants with convex face radii of multiples of 225mm (co-ordinating size of standard brick)
and 300mm (preferred planning module).

The spiral brick is an Ibstock innovation to produce
decorative columns and chimneys.
This unique design is a very simple shape which
allows you to create complex spirals with just one
standard special.
The spirals can follow a clockwise or anti-clockwise
pattern or cross over, yet all are laid with a single,
straight plumb line down the perpendicular joints.
Spiral Brick is available as standard in the
following colours:
Red Smooth from Cattybrook, Chesterton,
South Holmwood, Tannochside
Blue Smooth from Lodge Lane
Buff Smooth from Cattybrook, Tannochside,

The Ibstock Universal Joint range is an innovative
way of forming returns and angles which has now
become an established detail for variable angles
through 180˚ making a decorative and practical
solution to all designs.
The Universal Joint is available in two formats:
Easyangle ® and a two piece option.
The two piece option gives a more pristine finish,
whilst the one piece reduces complexity on site and
is very cost effective. Both options are shown.
We also offer a unique Ibstock Universal Joint stop
special - the ‘Elephants Foot’, which can be used to
give both a functional and decorative appeal to corners.
The Universal Joint range is available as standard in
the following colours:
Red Smooth from Cattybrook, Chesterton,
