Questions about Octagon shaped bricks.

TLDR:

are there particular names for Octagon formed bricks? What sort of constructions moreover paths are these used for? is there wherever I can view constructions utilizing this brick kind for inspiration?

Howdy, I’m a 3D modeler engaged on a digital citadel. i used to be fascinated about utilizing common bricks, however their corners are minimize off diagonally. (not as excessive as this, however simply sufficient to get a novel form.)

Why arent octagon formed bricks used that usually? the one outcomes i can discover on google are symmetrical octagon bricks blended with sq. bricks to kind a sample for path pavers.

I perceive that possibly shaving the perimeters won’t profit the construction, maybe weakening it.

Total im simply curious and wish to be taught extra! if you understand of any attention-grabbing patterns for a brick wall let me know!

Thanks!
