Im asumeing bio brick is the prefab sheet brick in pre fabe fire place boxs .The pre fab brick is made to withstang the heat of the fire but in a built up masonay fire place the fire box and smoke chamber holdes alote of weaight . I would think you would need the full brick in side with air space all around . You mite use the pre fab sheet brick inside the fire box on the back and sides . Most brick comes 21/2 x 4x 8 but you can cut them to anty size .

I haven't use the Bio Bricks but used the similar style logs. They burn hot and clean, little or no smoke. The logs I used were about 12" long and weighed 6 or 7 lbs. Burn time wasn't as long as I had hoped and they are a little on the spendy side. I think they are good for the occasional burner or if you can't find any good seasoned firewood.

Thanks for you replies. Perhaps I didn't word my question clearly. I'm considering using Biobricks as a replacement to cord wood in a traditional wood burning fireplace. I will NOT be using a stove, or any other appliance. I'm not really looking for a source of heat, but certainly would not be upset if heat would be generated, I only use my fireplace for atmosphere.

Thanks again for your input.

They work fine in a fireplace, that is where I burned mine. For occassional use, less mess, and storage, It's a great product.
