Facing the house facing bricks

Brick is one of the most popular materials for cladding buildings and blocks of wood, so each builder, who chose the material, asks the question: how to impose house facing bricks?

Masonry has not only an aesthetic function, but also practical, because it protects the house from blocks of wood, or by various environmental influences, extending their service life.

also increases the masonry thermal insulation properties.

Due to the diversity of colors, textures, brick and masonry types of sizes, you can create an original façade, for example, in the image represented by the facade of brick-colored ivory.

But before proceeding to the wall, you need to choose the right project, the type of material, as well as get acquainted with work performance technologies.

How to choose material for the cladding?

correctly selected brick masonry will provide easy, long service life and a beautiful facade, so regardless of the type of material must meet certain indicators:

  • correct geometric shape;
  • clear distinction;
  • uniform color, stands out the color of ivory;
  • cracks and bundles;
  • frost;
  • water absorption of not less than 6%.

for cladding can select the following types of facing material:

  • ceramic;
  • silicate;
  • hyper.

consider each type of detail.

Ceramic brick filled with clay, has the following characteristics:

  1. water absorption - 6-14%;
  2. frost - F25, F35, F50, from clinker - F100;
  3. low thermal conductivity - 0,3-0,5 W / m ° C;
  4. density - 1300-1450 kg / cubic meter, in the clinker - up to 2100 kg / m³.

filler sand-lime brick is quartz sand, it has the following characteristics:

  1. water absorption - 6.8%;
  2. frost - F15-F50;
  3. thermal conductivity - 0,38-0,7 W / m · ° C;
  4. density - 1500-1950 kg / cubic meter.

Hyperpressed brick is made of limestone, cement and crushed limestone.All components are mixed and are processed under high pressure.

Externally, such a material similar to natural stone.

giperpresovanny brick has the same properties as ceramic, frost differs only with indicators of F100-F150, and high density.

High density explains the lack of air spaces, so the need for additional insulation of the house.

Based on the above characteristics, it is possible to choose the desired media type.So, if you want to increase the thermal conductivity of the house, then you need to use a ceramic brick.

As ceramic material is used if needed to reduce the load on the foundation.With the use of ceramic bricks can implement any project, thanks to the variety of colors.

Another use of ceramic bricks is preferred because of the color of ivory.

lime brick is lower cost, improved sound insulation performance, and silicate material absorbs less moisture.All kinds of bricks are shown in the photo.

Finishing facade can be made of bricks of any color: white, red or ivory.It all depends on what kind of project, decoration was chosen.

As manufactured facing work?

Facing bricks can be made during the construction of the house or after the construction of the house.

Finish brick home made once, so all the work to be performed correctly.

should be noted that in the modern building, there are three technologies bricklaying:

  • Direct - the simplest and most common decoration;
  • Decorative - more complex decoration, as it is a means of laying open ornamental seams, as well as the use of materials of different colors;
  • Art - the most complex decoration, for which you want to create a pre-design of the project and to invite experts, because it is important to perform all works correctly.This finish is often combines brick chocolate and ivory.

brick veneer technology consists of the steps listed below and shown in the video.

The first thing to calculate the required amount of material.In 1 square meter requires 51 bricks.

important to immediately calculate the amount of material required, since different batches of the same type of bricks may vary hue.

Next, you need to prepare the walls of the house.If a house or a wooden frame, the wood to be processed antiseptic.

recommended to treat the wall twice with a time interval of one day.

should also pay attention to the foundation and the roof that must withstand the weight of the structure.

So the next step is to strengthen the foundation or pouring a new foundation.reason connection is made in the following order.

Types of brick masonry

First you need to drill a recess with a diameter of 1.2 cm, a depth of 10 cm in concrete or 20 cm brick.The recesses need be positioned at 10 cm below the top of the foundation with a gradient of 20 °.

Now Realized recess to insert reinforcing rods with a diameter of 12 mm, which must be placed above the foundation level by 15 cm.

After pouring a new foundation, the recommended thickness is 30 cm, the upper part of the valve will remain in the concrete.On top of the foundation is covered with two layers of waterproofing material.

Regarding the roof need to sharpen their focus on the following elements - the eaves of more than 25 cm, as the roof should cover the entire lining thickness based on the ventilation gap.

Otherwise brick, not protected from the rain, will absorb water and can deteriorate over 5 years.

If carried out lining of a wooden house, in order to prevent damage to the wood necessary to make ventilation as the wood is exposed to absorb moisture and rot, and provide ventilation created by the tree enclosed space conditions.This tree will last forever.

Next house wall must be covered with thermal insulation, such as mineral wool.

When training is completed, be sure to make the connection and masonry walls of the house.If the log house, then you need to hammer a nail into the top of the log, closer to the seams under the angle 45 °, as in the photo.

then nail driven need to wrap a soft, double-folded wire 3 mm thick.After that you need to drive a nail completely and bend.The same is done and if the house of the blocks.

Wrapping wire runs up the middle of the brick straight and then with a deviation to the side by 20 mm.So you need to do on the perimeter at a distance of 0.5 m.

For a frame house can use nails in length of 10-12 cm. For the construction of the blocks used clamps for ligation.More bandage can be seen on the video.

During tiling formed streaks of white.These stains cause the solution ingredients.

Therefore it is recommended to use dry mixture, or Portland cement without the various additives for the preparation of the solution.

better breed solution in small portions, stirring regularly needed that will prevent premature solidification of the solution.

carefully need to work with a brick-colored ivory, as clean with bright streaks of material easy.

Foreign Technology recommends the use of masonry cement-lime mortar, as the lime neutralizes the effects of alkali.

To do this, take 1 part portland cement M500, 2 parts lime, 8 parts of sifted sand.

solution most commonly used black color, but by adding a color pigment, it is possible to prepare a solution of any color.

Immediately before laying the bricks is recommended to briefly put into the water, the material does not absorb water from the solution.It is impossible to produce a laying at a temperature lower to 0 °.

starts lining from the upper level of the cap, with the corners.After 6 rows calculations to ensure the evenness of the series, you can pull the rope around the base, which will be checked by horizontal rows.

For the same periods of the rows of honey, you can use a steel rod.Cement is applied to the rod, and then laid a brick.

excess cement from the face of the bricks must be carefully removed with a cloth before drying.After extracting the rods made of wall cleaning solution.

verticality constantly need to check the building level.Before laying on cement mortar, brick must be placed so that it will be located in the masonry.

Joint thickness should be 10-14 mm.To improve the ventilation of the clutch do not need to bring to the eaves on one row.If necessary, the brick can be cut.

Window and door openings are placed in one layer of bricks, as in the photo.

Facing windows

stoned facades of houses from blocks of wood, or simply, to cope with this task builder with minimal knowledge.More cladding process is shown in the video.

Projects facades of red, bright, chocolate, and other types of bricks for homes made of wood and the blocks are shown in the photo.
