Why do rural houses no longer use red bricks?

With the development of society, people's living conditions are getting better and better, especially the houses they live in have changed obviously. For example, adobe houses, which they have lived in for 50 or 60 years, are particularly humid in windy and rainy seasons, and are easy to leak rain, while red brick houses only became popular in the late 1970 s and 1980 s, and their stability and performance are much better than adobe houses. But now the country has begun to ban burning red bricks and building houses with red bricks. Why?

1, the thermal insulation performance and bearing capacity of red brick are poor. Nowadays, high-rise buildings eat reinforced concrete instead of red bricks, because the bearing capacity of red bricks is poor, which is doomed to be unsuitable for high-rise buildings, and houses built with red bricks are hot in Leng Xia in winter.

2. The construction period of red brick in Gai Lou is too long and the technology is complicated. Because red bricks are small materials, unlike prefabricated wall materials, because they are relatively large, the process is simpler and the construction speed will be much faster.

3. Red bricks are fired with clay. In order to burn red bricks, it is necessary to build brick kilns, dig mountains and take materials, which will not only destroy cultivated land, but also cause a lot of consumption of clay resources and fuel. Moreover, bricks are fired with coal, so the firing process not only wastes coal resources, but also causes air pollution.

It is forbidden to use red bricks. What should we use to build a house?

1, porous brick. Porous brick is a new variety after small hollow brick masonry, which has very good sound insulation and heat preservation effect.

2. Assemble the building. Compared with traditional buildings, this kind of building has obvious advantages, such as environmental protection, no noise, no dust and short construction period.

3. Lime sand brick. Modified material is a new building material with mature performance and technology, which is more suitable for multi-storey mixed structure load-bearing walls.

4. Cement bricks. Cement bricks are more environmentally friendly, do not need to be burned, and have higher strength.

With the progress of science and technology, people's awareness of economic and environmental protection is getting stronger and stronger, and many building materials are facing the fate of being replaced by new environmental protection materials, from ancient wooden houses to red bricks, cement bricks and perforated bricks. In fact, red bricks also have advantages, especially strong. If you hit your head with a red brick, it may make people doubt life. In many places, red bricks are turned into decorative materials to decorate new houses, showing a relatively retro decoration style, which is expensive and has become a symbol of family wealth.
