Another good resource is the National Brick Research Center at Clemson University. They study the physical and chemical composition of bricks and do testing/research on historic bricks. A couple of my colleagues worked with the center a year ago to make bricks that would approximate the bricks present at Fort Sumter. All of which is to say, there are people there interested in the structure of historic building materials, and they might well be able to provide some answers and recommendations. <a href="https://www.brickandtile.org/">https://www.brickandtile.org/</a><br>
