Always find it amazing that two bricky's can start a long row from opposite ends and still end up spot on in the middle where the final brick fits like a glove, top job 👍

After setting the bond out, all you have to do is sight your perpendicular joint out, making sure they are plumb.

Hi stu I'm a plumber and oil rig mechanic buy trade but you've inspired me to learn more about laying. It's not a job it's an art and I don't think people realise just how skilled it is. I'm 52 but never too old to learn. Love the vids and massive respect to the brickies of the world.

@sheilavazquez8859 Год назад

@keironhiggins9620 4 года назад

Great to see you taking time to teach jang, too many brickies out there don’t teach their labourer only don’t wanna take 5 mins to let them have a go on the trowel and bring them on

@Stucrompton1 4 года назад

we are on pricework here cheers

@shifty277 4 года назад

@@Stucrompton1 Well said - pressure for an expert bricklayer at that to lay to a timeframe and come out with a perceived better than day rate profit. Jang would upset that equation, but Still will have many pockets of time and jobs to allow him to learn no doubt. Par for the course on pricework footings here. Thumbs up stu, the background music selection is always bang on and chilled.

@shifty277 4 года назад

@mike gallimore that sounds about right, but it happens in all trades now. Its not always a given if you train someone up they will stay with you when at a good level.

@kewongcohen9845 3 года назад

Wow this is so different to the way we build houses in Jamaica you don’t cast the foundation where it has been lined out nor is there any steel in the foundations or steel columns . Is this because the U.K. isn’t likely to have hurricanes or earthquakes so reinforced steel isn’t necessary? Also the internal walls haven’t been lined out is this because you will just use plaster board / concrete board for partition walls?

You gotta get on site on the line mate.. that will build up your speed and confidence.. many qualified brickies dont know anything outside of college.. sites a whole different ballgame mate..you have to get on the tools and learn as you go.. except less dosh at first..then pay attention to the old boys.. everything you learned in college will start to make sense.. i passed my brickwork course 25years ago.. and i have only been fully confident to set out buildings etc in the last 7 years.. best of luck mate..

I want to know about what size footings are needed for brick walls and if compaction or DG or gravel is needed to prep the ground before pouring cement footings? please make a video about this when you have time thank you and all of your videos are great I like them all

@trevorwilliams632 2 года назад

Depends on ground conditions. Most buildings including many houses are founded on piles not concrete trench foundations, or on a concrete slab designed as a raft. . Another technique is vibrocompaction where stone is injected into the ground to form a "hardened crust"
