Let’s dive deeper into what masonry is, explore different types of masonry works, and discover the various services we offer.
Let us Understand What is Masonry?
Masonry refers to the craft of building structures from individual units, which are often bound together by mortar. Common materials used in masonry include bricks, stones, concrete blocks, and tiles. Masonry is known for its durability, resistance to weather and fire, and ability to provide excellent thermal insulation. These qualities make it a popular choice for constructing walls, floors, pathways, and various architectural features.
Types of Masonry Works
Masonry can be classified into several types based on the materials used and the nature of the construction. The following are some common types of masonry works:
- Brick Masonry: Involves the use of bricks that are laid in specific patterns to form walls and other structures. Brick masonry is known for its strength and aesthetic versatility.
- Stone Masonry: Uses natural stones like granite, limestone, or sandstone to create visually appealing and durable structures. Stone masonry is often employed in constructing monuments, retaining walls, and exterior facades.
- Concrete Block Masonry: Utilizes concrete blocks, which are larger than bricks, to form load-bearing and non-load-bearing walls. This type of masonry is widely used in modern construction due to its cost-effectiveness and strength.
- Tile Masonry: Involves the installation of ceramic, porcelain, or natural stone tiles for flooring, walls, and decorative features. Tile masonry enhances the beauty and functionality of interiors and exteriors.
- Glass Block Masonry: Incorporates glass blocks that allow light to pass through while maintaining privacy and insulation. This type is often used in interior partitions and facades.
- Composite Masonry: Combines different materials, such as bricks and stones, to create unique textures and designs. Composite masonry is often used in decorative and ornamental applications.
