Information
----------------------------------------------------
- Stretcher Bond.
- Iron Joint.
- Bricks do not play a structural role. Layers of concrete and steel are used to hold up this structure.
- Another reason for this deduction is the quality of the bricks. This building is new on the housing market and already cracks can be seen on the brickwork. Most likely it was built in a hurry hence the surface of the bricks are rough and the brick itself is most likely very weak.
- The first floor of the building uses a dark rich brown brick whilst the subsequent upper floors uses a light brown brick.
- Bricks are layed out very simply as rows and rows of rectangular blocks.
