Continue filling decorative blocks. new forms

I continue to produce decorative products with a surface made of natural gravel for the fence. fence project in the last edition you must cast block 222110 typesetting on poles and 112 - two rows of masonry between the pillars. Above the stack - is edging board fence on two sides with a pitch (the same form on both sides of the fence).

But what would this masonry looked finished - decided to make a decorative cover for the blocks. For this purpose, it has acquired three forms: 50h18h5 see the organization in our town, selling similar forms and generally everything you need to block the production process, the tiles, pavers, etc.

Plated form concrete setting retarder, preliminary treatment of the inner surface of sandpaper (for better adhesion composition).

Previous pyramidal cover for the original project, it turns out not become necessary. But the cast and all four of them.

In the weekend and poured cleaned patterned elements for pillars (intake of profiled sheet) to shuttering modified blockouts. Elements gained strength - can be removed, try both of these will be extracted blockouts:

It is taken out to be surprisingly easy. Plastic "shirt" is flat and can be easily removed. On the concrete surface is stretch film:

The film was removed and the front of the new re-filling swathes blockouts.

At this time forgotten to put in concrete perforated strip (for a more secure attachment to the post). Nothing critical - these items will be used first in the decorative "shirt." Example:

Blockouts 60x60 mm were removed without any problems:

There in the manufactured product range with the size of 30x60 mm - Pole side of the fence:

Also taken out easily enough. Torn stretch film, take out the wooden element, and then the plastic liner.

I acquired a new brush and a sponge. Brush lasts an average of 60-70 units - is erased. In terms of the resource is obtained the treated area 10-12 m2. Although scrubbing blind area (~ 20 m2) worn off is only one nylon.

An example of how they wear:

At brushes with metal bristles - approximately the same resource. But there is a feature: it keeps for a long time as a new, but then very quickly showered.

He drew the first cover:

The surface of the product is already dry. concrete matures quickly draining the surface of the product - During the day, the heat in the greenhouse should incredible. Doctoring almost dry sand.

Cleaned, washed. View on the building blocks. Live and in the masonry look all different.

Caps were obtained with the maximum number of pebbles on the surface - concrete between them is virtually nonexistent. This was achieved by vibrating the forms on the vibrating table in a minute. All stones in the concrete down to the bottom. In the forms of such units does not occur.

View cover separately

Another batch of decorative concrete overlays. Retrieves blockouts a few days later - that would be scored concrete strength and the product is not cracked.

Another four typesetting unit for poles. Because forms only four. Manufactured half of the required amount. slightly more than 30 pieces of wall left to cast. Equator passes, debugged process. In parallel, it would not accumulate blocks - the parties need to put in a fence. 11 pole and the wall 8 has a clutch fence.
