Today’s post is just some boring pictures of a wall, or perhaps not?
Material increases across the building industry have also amplified the demand for creative ideas on construction interfaces within engineering projects. This is a recent example at one of Cairnhill’s long-term housing developments. One of the benefits of upfront design is to ensure the best outer envelope solution is utilised. By factoring in how the glazing interacts with the cladding, and on this occasion, the installation of brick slips by our team on site was the right outcome.
Brick slips offer several advantages over traditional bricks, including ease of installation, lightweight construction, cost-effectiveness, and sustainability. They are, in effect, thin slices of brick, which makes them much easier to handle and transport, and they can be used both indoors and outdoors due to their durability in low temperatures.
The effort spent on creating the right solution saves time in the long run and can help shorten the overall programme.
