In recent years, there is a tendency for the garden and dacha plots to rest more often from the city bustle, rather than working on the harvest, although nothing human is alien to us, and the work on earth is also such a kind of recreation. The vast majority of people do not think of their country rest without a barbecue, where you can cook a variety of delicacies: from meat and fish to vegetables and fruits.

Mangalы представляют собой сложные устройства и могут быть металлическими или стационарными, а также изготавливаться из various materials and with a wide variety of finishes. In our article we will consider the option of a stationary brick mangal. This building is not only practical and convenient, but it also looks reliable, solid, aesthetically pleasing and modern.

Choice of place

As the brazier from a brick is stationary device intended for long-term use, it is important to choose the right place of the future brazier. It is necessary to pay attention to the landscape design of the site, wind direction and terrain. It should also be noted that smoke can enter the house or a summer house, which can darken the rest. It is better not to post this building. near other buildings, and maintain a safe distance in order to increase fire prevention. At the same time, it is necessary to take into account that food will be carried from home, and this place should not be far away.

Design options for braziers of brick

Brick grill возможен в различных вариациях:

• tall and not very;
• with or without a roof;
• in a niche or detached;
• with an additional table and even several;
• with and without chimney;
• with compartments for storing firewood and coal etc.

Sizes and equipment for barbecue from brick

When choosing the size of the future construction, you can take into account all the desires and possibilities. There are a number of basic principles - this ease of use and appearance. It does not hurt at all, if the completeness to provide a place for the ashes and blowing air. Important when there are special places coal storage and logs of wood, skewers, metal grill над рабочей зоной, которая оградит открытый огонь в случае необходимости. Mangal может выполнять функцию барбекю или гриля и иметь собственную посуду.

First you need to decide with the height of the brazier, which directly affects the usability. It has been experimentally proven that the minimum height of the working area of ​​the barbecue should be no less than the wrist. The width of the working surface of the furnace, as a rule, does not exceed one meter - this distance will allow you to place a sufficient number of skewers or two or three grids for frying meat or fish. The above requirements for the size and configuration of barbecue suggests the following size - 60 cm by 140 cm

We make a brazier project of brick

You can try to make a project yourself. First is save money on the design, and secondly, will allow more qualitatively calculate the consumable building material.

Already at the project stage it is important to know about the presence or absence canopy over the building, because for it pre-laid foundation elements, depending on the type of support.

The construction technology of the brick grill

In order to know the cost of the finished structure, you should calculate consumption all materials: basic, auxiliary and finishing. For the size of 60 cm by 140 cm will need about three hundred bricks. If all the work on the construction of barbecue is done by hand saved good money.

Materials required for construction

When choosing materials, the specifics of building operation are taken into account:

• year-round use;
• high temperatures above 100 degrees;
• sudden changes in temperature.

During heating the brick has property to expand one millimeter, and a solution of cement - two, so there are cracks. All these requirements dictate the choice of special furnace brick, and for its laying a mixture of sand and clay is necessary. Clay is pre-soaked in water for at least two days.

After analyzing the requirements and characteristics of materials, we conclude that you will need:

• furnace heat-resistant brick;
• sand;
• cement;
• metal fittings;
• metal corners;
• lime extinguished.

To be cheaper, you can some amount heat resistant bricks replaced with front red. This applies to those areas that will not be exposed to strong heat.

We build the foundation of buildings

1. Initially needed dig a pit under the foundation, the outer perimeter of which must match the selected dimensions of the finished building. The depth of the pit is about 60 cm.
2. The base is covered with sand in height. about 10 cm
3. We make a timbering, that is, foundation perimeter is fenced moisture resistant plywood (plastic or any other even moisture-resistant material that is at hand).
4. Required for the strength of the future foundation reinforcement needed that is, закладываем в котлован металлическую арматуру, проволоку etc., to achieve additional strength of the screed and eliminate the possibility of cracking.
5. Pour cement mortar in the formwork, which is made from sand (3 parts), cement (1 part) and water, with crushed stone added (proportions of the components are selected empirically, taking into account the brand of cement). Foundation ground can fill with a slight bias: no more than one centimeter so that water flows out of the building.
6. Before complete drying of the concrete, the screed should be watered on top of the water every ten hours and maybe even cover up with a cloth that will be wet to avoid cracking.
7. It takes about two weeks for the screed to be enough dried out well.

Kladka balsa

The easiest way of laying is “dry”, that is, first row of bricks laid out without fastening solution but as if to mark future boundaries. The resulting outline must be drawn and you can start laying. Pre need carefully moisten masonry material because it absorbs moisture well.

When laying bricks make sure that the mortar is filled all butt joints and there were no air voids left. The mortar on which the building material is laid has the following proportions:

• cement - 1 part;
• hydrated lime - ¼ part;
• sand - 3 parts;
• water - to a creamy state.

We build a brazier base, lattice supports and a chafing dish

When erecting a mangal base it is important to regularly check masonry on the subject of strict observance of verticality and horizontal with a plumb and level. During the laying of the base it would be nice to put a mortar between the bricks a pair of hooks in order to hang a poker and a scoop for coals. So they always will be at hand and at the same time will serve as an interior decoration.

To some extent, the roof can be replaced by plastering the barbecue itself - this will give additional protection from precipitation. The plaster can be prepared on the basis of glue for laying gas silicate blocks, and can be used as a dye fine crushed bricks which was unnecessary after construction.

The advantages of this "dye" gives increased stability colors, because the brick is designed for use outdoors in any weather, and the “grain” of the plaster will give unique picture barbecue facade and does not require perfect evenness of a stretch, what is important for those who are not an expert in this field. With a lot of confidence we can say that the neighbors will not have such a finish.

For the manufacture of the base of the frying place (broiler) on the opposite walls we have fittings or metal corners. They will serve as the basis for a fire chamber from a brick.

Features of operation and care

Operation of the brazier made of brick is simple. Is required to keep clean working surface, using household chemicals, while removing ash from blowing, which is a good fertilizer for plants. If the base of the brazier is lined with tiles or porcelain, it is possible wet cleaning surface built using household detergents.

With the correct calculation of the project and compliance with technical parameters brazier will delight you for many years and all year round.
