The decorative aspect plays an equally important role than the strength of the structure. The choice of facing material has always worried the owners when building a house. I always want the structure to look solid, have a presentable and expensive look, it looked good against the background of neighboring estates. Despite the spread of all kinds of facade panels, the demand for such reliable and classic material as facing brick does not fall.
What is the good house of red facing brick?
Made of exceptionally natural components, this structure does not poison the atmosphere, holds heat well and looks very beautiful. Facing bricks are divided into several subspecies:
- Ceramic – rectangular brick obtained as a result of firing. In addition to clay, the material includes different additives. The front are the three sides.
- Hyperpressed – Full -bodied, has greater strength, an additional press is performed before firing. All sides of such advanced bricks are facial.
- Rusted – The front side has not a smooth, but a special “torn” shape. This technique is carried out so that the appearance of the building resembles walls made of natural wild stone.
Some nuances when choosing facing brick
If on the basis you noticed that the material has chips, cracks, some bricks in the pack have an unpresentable look, that is, the danger that the party is defective. Clay can include lime inclusions, and the appearance of the house will quickly deteriorate. Check the catalog if this red facing brick corresponds to your climatic conditions. Marking of the material consists of the letter “M” and several digits. The larger the number after the letter, the greater the permissible load per 1 sq.m, the stronger the house will be. With frost resistance, about the same, but here the parameter is marked a little differently – F15, F 25, F32 and higher. A good brick when hit should be a little ringing, a dull sound is a sign of poor processing.
Often the products differ in color, although it is made at one factory. Just the chemical composition of clay even within the same deposit can change slightly. Therefore, do not be surprised when the dark red facing brick has a slightly different shade. The masons found a way out, and in the process of work they interfere with the material from different parties. Then there are no large contrasting walls of the walls of spots on the floor, and the surface looks even more original.
