A Brick is a general term for any LEGO part. However, technically it is an element three plates or more thick, rectangular in shape, with at least one stud on top. They often have stickers or printings on them, like many other LEGO elements. They come in many sizes, from a tiny 1x1 brick to the largest 12 x 24 brick plates.
Sizes
Bricks are referred to by their dimensions. When they are only three plates high, they can be referred to as a 2x2 brick. If they are taller, then a third number is added, referring to their height. An example is the 1x2x5 brick.
Interestingly enough, the only odd-number bricks are the 1x and 3x sizes. All sizes above are even numbers.
Technic Bricks
Known in other circles as beams, these bricks have hollow studs and have holes through them for pegs or axles.
