Wall ceramic materials - facing buildings quickly and efficiently

Description veneering ceramic

outer surfaces of the walls most exposed to precipitation, sunlight and temperature changes.It is because of this it is necessary to choose high-quality wall coverings and durable building material.Coatings have to serve a minimum of 5-10 years, and they are not only protect the building from harmful influences, but also look presentable.

most appropriate for these material requirements are the ceramic wall panels, which in addition to its positive performance qualities also economical.Due to the fact that ceramic has a smooth surface and low porosity, it is the least exposed to the damaging effects of external factors.

veneering ceramic can be of different textures, shapes and colors.It can simulate:

• brick;
• processed stone;
• raw stone and so on.

choosing ceramic panels for cladding the building must be carefully measured coverage area to calculate the required number of panels.

The use of ceramic panels

Facing ceramic can be used both indoors and outdoors.For facing inside walls of premises, typically use a ceramic tile.And for the finishing of the building from the outside - ceramic facade panels.

Widespread use ceramic wall coverings are only three of its type:

• panels manufactured by firing various clays (with texture and color depend on the technology chosen and clay);
• glazed tiles (the usual ceramic glaze layer is applied);
• carpet-mosaic tiles (made by casting).

Each of the above types of ceramics has its own characteristics and applications.As a rule, for the cladding of buildings used outside the tile, obtained by the firing.The amount of such panels can be different.Carpet-mosaic tiles are used for both internal and for external walls, columns, balconies, as well as for the manufacture of decorative panels.Glazed panels create from the clock-Yarskaya clay, covered with multicolored glaze on top.

Installing ceramic

In the process of finishing a building large-scale ceramic tiles using stamped metal matrix, which are attached to the pallet boards with screws.On the surface of the pallet, covered matrices laid soft tissue of the same size as the product.The tiles are placed in the cells of the panels.

Important!Before laying the cement-sand mortar tile ceramic must be moistened with water.

large-sized tiles are laid individually and manually, which is time consuming and labor.Because the alternative is to choose small-sized ceramic tiles and tiles "pylon", which are pre-pasted on kraft paper, and come in the form of mats.

Important!For gluing the panels need to use a special glue, which is based on urea-formaldehyde resin.

adhesive manufactured for 3 hours before use and then applied to the back surface of the tile, pretreated chisel (the surface to be treated as a chisel) and applied to the surface.It should be a force to press the panel so that it adheres well to the wall, and went out excess glue, which is removed with a spatula.
