I'm guessing these are sun dried bricks, and the area is to large to be covered with a roof or more temporary cover (plastic)? Do we know what percentage of the drying time needs to be exposed to full sun?

I have seen bricks stacked and covered with polythene for drying in Indonesia - are the bricks sufficiently strong when wet to be stacked?

How open is the community to change - could you introduce something like compressed earth block (which can then be stacked dried as above)?
