Made the project of the fence of the blocks in SketchUp and thought ...
To accurately calculate the number of blocks to be used in the masonry front of the fence, I decided to draw the draft in SketchUp. Tape removed from the concrete dimensions of the tape filled in the past year (from the pipe poles 60x60 mm filled yet earlier). By the size of all transferred to the program.
Drew inlaid unit (300h260h200 mm) and wall (200h188h388mm). As well as the tops of the posts and the fence. Folded copy of these pillars and masonry:
Total length: 33m. masonry Length: 24,7m. At the moment this part of the plot looks like this:
Zadal surface texture blocks from one of the images of decorative tiles under gravel (washed concrete).
I counted the number of blocks. How long should typesetting pole - it was clear before the rate of 10 pc. one post. According to the draft 11 posts in the fence. must 110 units. 38 already produced at the moment. Still needs to be done 72 pcs. (18 shaped fillings 4).
Of course, some of them I cull in masonry. We'll have to do a little more than 110 pieces. In previous articles published calculation of the sum of savings, why not buy ready-made. With self-manufacturing of typesetting blocks turns out that the cost is 6 times less than the factory.
The fence will be built on-stage. I make a batch of blocks - lay them.
But the wall you need a huge amount of (as it turned out). Calculation: 7.5 units per row span between the pillars. 9 layers of masonry. 67.5 pc. x 8 spans. It turns out 540 pcs.
still need 11 caps for the pillars and 55 pcs. pommels for the rest of the fence. Covers have time to make by the end of major works for the production of blocks and tops - just one third. Because only one form. We need to do more forms, laminated plywood available.
Experience has shown that the rate of pouring my building blocks: 26 blocks per week. It turns out, is only necessary for this work 21 weeks or more than 5 months of almost daily work of filling. Well, most likely, some commentators are right in the preceding articles. It is impossible for a long time. Construction of the front of the fence may be delayed for two seasons.
Most likely, it is still necessary to purchase ready-made wall PGS blocks. To lay down one wall and plaster them "washed concrete" technology masters Southeast Asia. About the way I've been doing a review here
Or plaster decorative surface "printed concrete?"
Sometimes, you need to listen to the opinions of others and to admit mistakes, to change the conclusions. Now is such a case. It appeared here which option to finish this part of the fence in a single season:
I have to cast their decorative blocks on all the pillars. When doing fills wall and in an amount, based on the following calculation:
In one layer as I said block 7.5. Nine layers in one span. Spread of two layers (lower and uppermost layers). 15 It is necessary to their decorative blocks to span between the pillars. At 8 spans it will 120 pcs. A remaining 420 pieces. - purchased PGS blocks. their price 35.10 rubles.
There is an option to put the upper layers of triple-block:
He even cheaper: 30,70r. But has a lower strength.
The cost of this party factory PGS blocks: 35.10 rubles. x 420 pcs. 14742 rubles. Plus shipping. truck with manipulator flight to the station - 5 thousand. rub. Requires two flights, as It will be 7 pallets of 60 units.
Total: 24742 rbl. If 180 units. buy two-chamber units - get less at 792 rubles. Inessential difference.
In general, I decided to post the first row of masonry blocks filled in-house and acquire PGS blocks for the rest of the volume. Then plaster work. In such an embodiment is quite capable to finish this part of the fence in one season (or even part of it).
