click fraud protection

When erecting a fence with brick pillars (continuous or of metal sheets, metal picket), the most important and difficult stage of work - is the masonry. Not everyone is ready to do the job yourself. Without the experience, of course, can not happen like professionals.

But if you look and work out at the first (lower) layers of the pillars, there is nothing complicated in this work there. I filled his hand on the clutch in a couple of tens of units (the principle is similar to the masonry).

On the Internet you can watch a lot of movies from the masters with a detailed analysis of each step shown with the intricacies and details of the process. Theory, but it helps.

In this structure, reinforcing mesh, I would have put the whole tape depth. You can do even three ply (2 bar). The foundation of the fence should be reliable as well as under the house.

Often, concrete or masonry tape on it is closed visor as columns:

This gives a nice view of the fence and close the tape from precipitation.

The two brick masonry few who does. This post looks at massive. Usually - 1.5 bricks.

As for the methods and techniques of masonry, the best way - is laying on the metal rods of square section:

One of the many videos in youtube, showing the subtleties of masonry on the rods.

As for quality masonry need to correctly prepare a solution: 1 to 4 (cement and sand) is optimal. The sand must be free of large stones, sifted ideal.

Efflorescence may appear on top, after the melting of snow or rain. If they were, then the commercially available means for their removal. And ideally, you want to protect hydrophobizator brick or stone cover impregnation. Varnish is not necessary - it has a high percentage of dry residue and eventually peel off.

Very few examples, where a decorative coating is finished foundation tape. As a rule, the majority of your fence is left in this form. But it looks as if the fence incomplete.

Agree that decorated the concrete form of a tape fence more attractive.

If the time left in the season, then its concrete tape as an experiment'll put decorative coating "Washed concrete" of Thai Technology.
