Lego bricks

modern building material called "Lego brick" visually similar parts LEGO children's designer.The presence of the projections on one side of the product, and rounded indentations, recesses on the other provide fast and high quality masonry joints.Apply the material for the construction of load-bearing walls, partitions, cladding, calculations supporting pillars and decorative columns.

design and features of manufacture

building material is produced using a special machine.The structure consists of Lego bricks limestone screenings, binder (usually Portland cement), water, dyes.Standard sizes of Lego bricks can be 250x125x65 mm or 300x150x100 mm.It is made by hyper.The quality and reliability of the construction materials used affects limestone or sand fraction: the smaller size components, the higher the strength of the final product.Approximate weight of the Lego brick is 3-3.5 kg.

Specifications of Lego bricks

Widespread use of building materials is justified by high density and durability of products.Lego bricks are suitable for decorating, as well as for the construction of load-bearing walls.Has this group of bricks following characteristics depending on the manufacturer:

• frost: 200 cycles;
• water absorption: about 5-6% (suitable for use in areas with high humidity and high rainfall);
• density: 1550 kg / m3;
• 0,4-0,45 thermal conductivity W / (m · K);
• brand strength: M100-200 (applicable for the construction of multi-storey private houses or commercial buildings).

Lego bricks for masonry strength superior ceramic analogues 1.5.Established design minimally exposed to mechanical influences and is reliable in times of seismic effects.

Benefits

positive properties of the material are not its only advantage.The unique shape allows easy construction of walls or partitions, connections between elements.The most important advantages of using a new type of brick are:

1. Possibility simple laying of communications inside the cavities.
2. low-cost products.
3. Wide range of colors (from light gray to deep red, dark blue, pink or yellow).
4. No need for subsequent finishing of walls and designs of Lego bricks (or smooth surface has a slight texture to the brink).
5. low weight of bricks does not require preparation of a sunken basement (for buildings of 1-3 floors).

Attracts the material and versatility.Suitable for decoration of buildings, as well as for displaying decorative indentation furnaces.It can be used for the construction of pergolas, fences.

Disadvantages

Disadvantages Lego brick is the fact that at present there is no branded manufacturers of building materials, unlike aerated concrete and other wall materials.Those.mostly garage manufacturers, most of which can not provide the quality certificates.Perhaps the main drawback lies in the fact that because of its relative newness, the building material has not passed the test of time and it is unclear how it will last 30-50 years.

construction and finishing, using Lego bricks

Connection series is made using a special adhesive.It is applied to the surface of the bricks with a special gun further concreted inner cavities when required.Realize products is made easy and requires no special skills of the performer.Before working only need to study the detailed video and photo reports from professional artists.
