Can anyone help, I need to name the stages of construction (for an assignment) of a brick house from excavation to ...lock-up? I believe there are 13-15 stages each requiring different sub-contractors. Even links to sites would be really helpful, as even with that I am having no luck!

I've been in the trades a long time; and never quite heard of LISTED stages; but I offer two cents; because the PROCESS makes sense.
Grading the property
Digging for a basement/ or framing to pour a slab
Pouring footers
Install Blocks as the basis of the brick work
Install brick
Depending on the design begin stud work to finish and truss work for the roof.
Intsall roofing
Add plumbing and electrical raw as the foundation or slab are being installed
That's less than 15, but certainly more; before and after are needed.
Permits/ inspections
Window/door installation
Insulation
Interior finish (Your choice) and that's a list in itself
"Lock Up" might assume NO interior finish
The contractors unless all done by one inclusive company could be
Concrete finishers
Masons
Electricians
Plumbers
Roofers
Others could include
Drywall hangers/finishers
Painters
Flooring contractors
Etc. Etc.

In the event that you need to discover pleasant thoughts for woodworking I can propose you to check here http://woodworking.toptips.org
It's perfect in the event that you are simply starting out or in case you're a prepared carpenter.
It has thousands and thousands of woodworking arrangements and you have a CAD/DWG software to view and alter the arrangements. You have regulated instructions with photographs and excellent blueprints and schematics. On the off chance that you are a beginner this is the simplest approach to start your woodworking projects, and on the off chance that you already have experience you can at any rate discover a ton of interesting thoughts!

To add to Doc's answer, he is assuming you mean full brick construction.
Here we mainly use timber framing and use the brick as a veneer.
