Having previously shared about Type and Type Cement According Functionality and Usefulness and how to calculate the need bricks to build houses this time we will share about Pros and cons of wall materials, namely red brick, limestone, brick and brick hebel or Celcon, each ingredient certainly has its advantages and disadvantages. The house is solid and strong, namely house building durable and long lasting.
The wall is part of building a very important role for a building construction. The walls are formed and protect the entire contents of the building both in terms of construction and in terms of artistic buildings. Raw materials manufacture building wall distinguished by:
brick wall is a wall that is most widely used in the construction of buildings both simple buildings, housing, or large-sized buildings. therefore, the brick walls has its own art in the installation system.
1. Wall bricks
The bricks are bricks made of soil that is printed and then burned at high temperature so that it becomes completely dry, hardened and reddish color. Land used was not just any land, but rather clay soil that can be fused during the printing process. Therefore, the house whose walls are built of red brick material will feel more comfortable and cool. In addition to a more robust and sturdy and durable, so it rarely happens rift walls built of brick material red.
This material is highly resistant to heat so it can be a protection pleasure for your building from fire hazards. Not all of the clay can be used, which consisted only of a certain content of the sand. Red brick generally have a length of 17-23 cm, 7-11 cm wide, 3-5 cm thick. Its small size provides ease of transport, it can be used to form small areas, cheap, easy to get it.
The raw materials needed to install the red brick walls are cement and sand sifter. When the installation does not require special adhesive, water-resistant wall necessary for a mixture of 1: 2 or 1: 3 (ie 1 dose of cement mixed with 3 doses of sand sifted). As for the wall that is not to be watertight able to use a ratio of 1: 4 to 1: 6.
Specifications Red Brick:
• Density Dry: 1500 kg / m3
• normal density: 2000 kg / m3
• compressive strength: 2.5 to 25 N / mm² (SII-0021,1978)
• thermal conductivity: 0.380 W / mK
• thickness of species: 20 - 30 mm
• resistance to fire: 2 hours
• Number (needs) red brick per 1 m2: 30-35 pieces without construction waste
Excess red brick:
Disadvantages Red Brick:
The walls are widely used dipedasaan, home folk, guardrail, or houses.

• thickness of species: 20 - 30 mm
• resistance to fire: 2 hours
• Number (needs) red brick per 1 m2: 30-35 pieces without construction waste
Excess red brick:
- Watertight, so rare seepage in the walls due to rain
- Does not require any special skills to install.
- the small size makes it easy for carrying.
- Easy to set up small field
- cheap price
- Easy to get
- the glue does not need to be special.
- Heat Resistant, so it can be a protection against fire.
Disadvantages Red Brick:
- It is difficult to make masonry neat
- absorbs heat in the summer and absorb cold on winter, so the room temperature can not be conditioned or unstable.
- Tends to be more extravagant in the use of material adhesive.
- the quality is less diverse and also the size that rarely make the same waste could recoup more .
- Because it is difficult to get a couple pretty neat, it takes pelsteran thick enough to produce the walls were pretty average.
- When the installation of longer than any other wall materials.
- weight , thus burdening the supporting structure.
- red brick pose a considerable burden on the building structure.
The walls are widely used dipedasaan, home folk, guardrail, or houses.
The advantages of using limestone
- Prices limestone walls are very cheap
- installation times faster and use less mortar-sand
- when already plastered wall is not visible from the ground or chalk
Disadvantages of using limestone
- These walls need a column practically every 2.5 m
3. Brick wall
Material wall of adobe is generally made from a mixture of cement and coarse sand molded or pressed solid. In addition there is also made of a mixture of rock tras, lime and water. Even now also circulating brick from a mixture of cement, sand and coal.
By making material as has been mentioned, brick has the disadvantage that its strength is lower than brick, so there tends to be cracking walls, especially if the empty part of its not filled with mortar species.
The use of material brick for the walls also make the building warmer even tend stuffy and hot, unlike the red bricks made of soil material. Brick or brick press in 1 m2 usually tend to be milder than the red brick. Its texture also looks more refined, and its size is more precise than the red brick.
adobe size press in general is the length of 36-40 cm, 8-10 cm thick , and 18-20 cm high. To the wall of 1 m2, roughly need 15 pieces of brick press. Usually adobe press have to lighten the load on the structure of a building, accelerate implementation and minimize material waste that occurs during the process of installation of the wall.
The raw materials used for the installation of brick-pres is mortar whose composition is cement (PC) and sand sifter.
Specifications brick Press:
• weight dry type (?): 950 kg / m3
• density normal (?): 1000 kg / m3
• compressive strength: 5.5 N / mm²
• thermal conductivity: 0,339 W / mK
• thickness of species: 20-30 mm
• resistance to fire: 4 hours
• Number (needs) brick press per 1 m2: 20-25 pieces without construction waste
Excess Wall brick Press:
- Each m2 couple walls, requiring less building block when compared to using a stone brick, means that quantitatively there is a reduction.
- making easy and sizes can be made equal.
- the size is large, so the time and cost of installation is also more efficient.
- Special types perforated, can function as an insulating air.
- If the job neatly, does not need to be plastered.
- More easily cut for a particular connection that requires cuts.
- Before the user does not need to be soaked in water .
- Watertight so very little possibility of water seepage.
- installs faster.
- the use of concrete frame pengakunya wider, between 9-12 m2.
Disadvantages wall brick Press:
- easy going cracks in the walls.
- easy hollowed out and break easily because there is a hole on the side of it.
- Less good for heat and sound insulation.
4. Stone Wall Light (Hebel or Celcon)
Many of us are familiar with this type of stone, brick light, or often called Hebel or Celcon made using factory machinery. This brick is quite mild, smooth and have a good degree of flatness. This lightweight brick was created in order to lighten the load on the structure of a building construction, speed up implementation, and minimize material waste that occurs during the installation process underway wall. Then the outstanding questions is whether the community would have been able to replace the light brick red brick both a review of the price, strength, ease of it, motode installation and others. To be deeper, let's surgical one-on-one so that we can know the strengths and weaknesses of each.
Bata Hebel / Celcon made by machines in factories. Brick walls hebel / Celcon is building the wall-forming material quality of high quality. Sales of bricks of this type does not exist on the agent or store material. But must be booked in advance.
Size in general are: length 60 cm , height 20 cm with a thickness of between 8 cm -10 cm. Mixture or composition of the material consists of quartz sand, cement, lime, a little gypsum, water, and aluminum paste as a developer (air filler is chemically). After the dough is mixed perfectly, will rise for 7-8 hours. For installation on a wall of 1 m2, roughly need 8 pieces of light brick.
Installation of light brick is quite easy, can be directly given acian without having plastered advance using special cement. Special cement mixture just need to be given water. However, installation of light brick can also use sand and cement as the installation of the brick, the brick press and brick red.
Specifications Bata Lightweight:
• Density Dry : 520 kg / m3
• normal density: 650 kg / m3
• compressive strength:> 4.0 N / mm2
• thermal conductivity: 0,14 W / mK
• thickness of species: 3 mm
• resistance to fire: 4 hours
• Number (required) bricks are light per 1 m2: 8-9 pieces without construction waste.
Excess Bata Lightweight:
- Has the size and uniform quality so as to produce a wall neat.
- Not requiring broadcasting thick so as to save the use of adhesives.
- lighter than the plain brick so far to load on the structure.
- its transportation easier.
- implementation is faster than the use of ordinary brick.
- Not required plastering thick, generally determined only 2.5 cm.
- Watertight, so there is little possibility of water seepage.
- Having kekedapan sounds good.
- compressive strength is high.
- Has good resistance to earthquakes.
Disadvantages Bata Lightweight:
- Because of its large size, for the size of the liability, threw the rest pretty much.
- the glue special. Generally it is the instant cement, which is now available in the field.
- It takes special skills to install, because otherwise its impact is very visible.
- When exposed to water, then to be completely dry necessary a longer time than plain brick.
- the price is relatively more expensive than the red brick.
- it's hard to get it, just a hardware store who sold the brick lightweight.
- the sale was in volume (m3) were great.
From the description above, it can be concluded that each material has its own advantages and disadvantages. Brick press is a kind of wall covering material is the lightest and economical based on a review of cost, but has drawbacks such as not too well drown out the sound. While the conventional brick heavy enough so that it does not directly affect the load factor of the structure. While light brick has advantages such as more jobs are neat and precise, does not require much mortar to spesinya but the price is relatively more expensive than brick and ordinary brick.
