At the age of seven days the mortar slabs are detached from the bricks and sawn into tablets measuring 55 mm by 35 mm. These tablets are then air dried for 24 hours, followed by oven drying at 105±5°C for two hours.

There is also a potential for failure if mortar is over-sanded. When bond is poor, a crack can develop between brick and mortar that allows a path for water to reach the wire reinforcing and cause corrosion. One way to assure that the bricklayer will achieve good mortar bond is to design the panels without shelf angles supporting the bottom course.
