Masonry

The most common materials used in masonry are brick

, stone, concrete blocks, tiles, glass, granite and marble etc. Units of these individual materials are laid down together through mortar to build a masonry structure. The structure strength and durability depends upon a lot of factors like, quality of materials and mortar, the competency of workers and the manner in which the units are laid.

Masonry structures, as already mentioned above, are very strong. This high standard of quality comes with slightly higher costs compared to other forms of construction. Although, masonry is very cost effective because the strength of structure doesnt require frequent repairs and that adds to the life of the building and less repairing costs. If the masonry construction is of high quality, it is said to have a useful lifespan of more than 500 years. The high cost of masonry construction is actually affordable when you bear in mind that the materials used in this process like brick, concrete or stone, are mass-produced. The latest technological advances and innovations have also made it a cost effective and affordable form of construction.

The use of materials, such as brick, in masonry doesnt require posh paint jobs so youre also saving money there. Another benefit of using masonry is that these structures are very heat resisting. In fact, the masonry structures are said to have the highest capacity of fire resistance than any other form of construction. Thermal mass of the building is also increased in masonry structures depending on the materials used. If you keep all these facts in mind, the masonry comes out as the most budget friendly and favored type of construction.

When it comes to the necessary repairing and restoration of masonry buildings, it is very important that your hire a professional who has complete know-how of masonry buildings, its construction processes, the materials used and the different ways with which the renovation process can run smoothly. If you hire somebody who lacks this knowledge, your masonry construction might not be able to complete its full life span.
