Ceramic materials were the first materials to be used by humans to create tools and manufacturing rudimentary tools. At that time, the manufacturing steps were not well defined and controls did not show the various production steps, resulting in obtaining low quality materials. Thus, in order to produce good materials using clay as raw material, it was observed through studies and trials predetermined steps are needed to be followed and observed. Therefore, the aim of this study was to analyze the stages of exploration , extraction and processing of clay and molding, drying and firing, aiming the production of ceramic materials of good quality to be used in various segments of the construction.
