Any private house or cottage, in addition to many concerns and even some unpleasant moments, implies and periodic, and can also systematic kebabs. But in order to fry meat correctly, you need a good brazier. It is about how to make a brazier from bricks yourself, we will talk today.
Preparatory work
Of course, a brick brand is not a simple structure, so its creation requires careful preparation. Starting from early planning of the area, on which the construction will be built in the future, completing such subtleties as the possible availability of water supply, suitable countertops for greater convenience, and even lighting. Therefore, for a start we will talk about the preparation.
Zoning of terrain
When the idea of \u200b\u200bcreating a manga has already visited you and turned into a goal, you need to search for a suitable place for its construction. This is not an ordinary metal portable accessory, which can be installed anywhere, you need calculations.
The basic requirements for the ideal place must be such:
- relative flatness of the site;
- the necessary removal from the house of neighbors, as well as the resting positions, in order to eliminate the possibility of interference from smoke for normal life;
- relative proximity to your own home or cottage, with the aim of spending water, light or other necessary communications;
- the presence of a small area in the neighborhood, for the construction of picnic zones. This is a place where you can leave products or lay out the cooked meat.
Optimal Brick Mangal Options
Street Brick Mangal is a pretty simple structure that does not stand out by any tricks, like, for example, barbecue or special furnaces. But, nevertheless, there are interesting options that can always be implemented on their land plot.
Here they are:
- The easiest option may include the facilities of a small brick box directly in the ground, which will be added coals, and the meat on the skewers will be suspended from above.
- Not bad option is the so-called island. It will have a lower bipp and coal compartment, and on top of the shelves will be placed: first the grille for meat, and behind it, and special stops, designed to hold skewers with a kebab.
- Another wonderful option is not very different from the previous one. It has an additional work surface, which is located on the upper part of Magnal, or next to him. This surface is perfect as a table or stand for saucepans, knives and other devices needed during the preparation for a picnic.
Necessary materials
In addition to the drawings themselves and, perhaps, photographs of the brands of interest to you, you will be useful to some materials, devices. Here is their approximate list:
- Brick heat-resistant.
- Lime hawed.
- Cement package.
- Metal corners.
- Sand bag.
- Reinforcing grid (or reinforcement rods, on your choice).
- Wire, which will serve as a result to strengthen brick masonry.
- Red brick.
- Tile (in the event that your manga project provides for the presence of a tabletop).
You probably noticed that the list of materials needed, there are two types of brick. This is optional, but you can save a little. The thing is that in order to withstand the high temperatures needed only heat-resistant brick. But the thing - he should by no means cheap. Therefore, we suggest you use the red brick in those places where the grill will not be exposed to excessive heat, or else will not be heated at all. Much you save on this is not, but still nice.
Drawings of brick barbecues
By itself, without examining blueprints before construction, it will be very tight. Therefore it is recommended to find in the Internet the appropriate circuit barbecue made of bricks, or use proposed.
It is obvious that the majority of people it plans to build a street version of the barbecue, the so-called old complex. It is always possible to provide not only a place for firewood and brazier and firebox with a door, but also countertop, sink and more. Even up to the chimney. And there you have a wonderful drawing.
If you do not fit this option, you can find a whole lot of drawings and diagrams for every taste, because the Internet today is full of hundreds of different solutions, which at the time decided to share craftsmen.
Barbecue with their hands from a brick
Many people believe that to barbecue do not need a foundation and you can build just dug pit, strewn with rubble. This is a wrong decision as a slight distortion of soil can completely destroy the structure on which you have worked for so long. Time is wasted and money spent on materials, you will not be able to return. Therefore, the foundation is required torque.
Setting the foundation
To create a strong and solid foundation you need to perform a series of the following operations:
- Choose a suitable location, which in the future will be built from a brick BBQ. On the nuances of selection we have said.
- Square pad size with a side of 120 cm, are ideal.
- Selection mark portion by means of pegs and special bichevki.
- With a shovel pit do. Its depth must be 25 centimeters.
- Install formwork.
- Prepare a solution in a ratio of cement to sand of 1: 3.
- Pour the solution into the pit.
We must also remember that the base must necessarily be armored. To do this you perfect one of two options:
- reinforcement bars;
- reinforcing mesh.
It should be noted that in case you choose the grid, it will need to be paved twice. The first layer is placed when a third of the pits are filled with a solution, after which the base is poured another one third, the second layer is paved, and the pit is completely filled with a solution.
In turn, the rods are stacked exactly in the middle of the base of the pit, after which they are completely flooded with a solution.
When the foundation is flooded, he needs to give time to stand. Two weeks will be enough.
Start of masonry
So that the brazier was built as quickly as possible, but at the same time it was neat, it is necessary to carry out a small fitting. Naturally, the brick mangal friend is not such an occupation that is being done on the go, so we have a kind of fitting.
The fitting will be as follows:
- Bricks are taken and laid out on the foundation of dry.
- We remember the results of fittings.
- Thanks to such a attack, in the future for the construction of the mangala, it will be possible to use whole blocks, as well as halves of bricks.
- Naturally, if you already have a prepared grille, pallet, their size should be considered at a preliminary laying.
- When bricks are decomposed, the laying line is recommended to circle and fix that in the future to follow it and not to be knocked down from the borders.
Before starting masonry, you need to prepare bricks. Not everyone knows that they are able to absorb moisture, which can lead to low strength of the structure. Therefore, it is recommended a day before the start of construction well wet them, or even leave at all for the night in buckets with water.
It follows the construction of a mangaal only when bricks are dry outside, but keep moisture inside yourself.
It's time to take the case. Take the solution and bricks and start laying out the first row. Make sure that the space between each brick is completely filled with the solution and the bricks sat down there in the order that was marked earlier. Use a special rubber hammer in order to enhance bricks in solution.
Construction of the socle
When the first row is erected, it should be used as a guideline for each subsequent row of masonry. The temple itself should go in order called chess. He implies that each next row will be shifted to the Polkirpich towards. Each row began to begin in this case from the corner.
It is obvious that in the process of masonry, you periodically need to check the planes of your facilities. To do this, there must always be a plumb, as well as the level. At least once in 2-3 rows, you need to check. If you forget about it, the risk of skewing the structure will be very high.
On the angular compounds, the masonry is reinforced using a metal wire.
Furning preparation, as well as locks for lattice
So that the base of the brazier holds as it should, it is necessary to prepare special attachments for it. It can be:
- reinforcement rods;
- metal corners.
We recommend that you choose exactly the corners, as they will be more comfortable and practical. The base of the furnace will be posted on them.
Also also have the presence of lateral brick laying gaps that will not be filled with mortar. They will be used as trenches for air intake. It is known that you will not express a fire without constant flow of oxygen.
As for the lattice, it can be installed on special metal rods and on simple protrusions that are formed in brickwork. If you lay out bricks across the wall, and they will be in the inner side of the ferry, it will be an ideal place for the grid.
Working surface
How to make a brand from bricks we have already learned, but on this work is not over. We also need to equip the work surface, without which it will be difficult during any picnic and holiday.
High-quality countertop must have some properties:
- Increased strength.
- Simple cleaning.
- Weather resistance.
- Comfortableness.
You need to make a tabletop such that it is located at the highest possible height and was very convenient to use. It will not be superfluous and its harmonious appearance. Ideally will look at the tabletop tile, which is used for the floor or sidewalks.
Such a surface will have increased strength, will not scratch, and besides - it will be quite simple to wash.
Council for the construction of mangala
As we have already spoken, it will not be superfluous by the presence of a water supply near the mangala, as well as the drain. It will save you from the loss of time for permanent walking in household reasons. Naturally, it is necessary to plan everything in advance, and the plumbing pipes are better to display through the base of your mangala.
In addition, you can think about the presence of lighting on the platform for the preparation of kebabs. It will often be happening that you have to prepare meat already at dusk. Therefore, the lighting will be like any other way.
Brick braggles, photos
Summing up, I want to consider various options of brick mangals, which you can create on your site, in photos.
For a start, two such simple variants that are noteworthy not only by the simplicity, which for the hands of everyone, not even a completely experienced dachanik, but also the speed with which such a structure can be erected.
And then, we offer to look at much more advanced facilities for which you need to spend more effort, but they will pay ourselves with more thank you, because such a brazier will be not just a meat frying device: kebabs and barbecue, but a real pride, a highlight of your yard.
Well, and finally, a couple of photos on which more serious mangals are also marked. One of those, by the way, is even a real set of meat. Such a peculiar summer kitchen, specialized solely under the preparation of barbecue and kebab. Of course, build such at home or at the cottage is a pretty resource and energy-intensive process, but this is really a work of art if it can be characterized.
Brick brand. Video
And complete our conversation about your own grill, we recommend the video. After all, we have never said what to see once is better than reading ten times.
At the proposed video, the specialist will quite affordably explain all the nuances and the subtleties of planning, as well as the construction of the mangala on its land plot. To do this, it will demonstrate the masonry and technology at the special designer of the reduced size.
