Why do most people choose to use bricks instead of concrete when building a house in the countryside?

Red bricks, also known as clay bricks, are commonly known as solid bricks. This building material is widely used to build houses in rural areas. This is because such building materials are cheaper and better accepted by the public. For thousands of years in China, red bricks have been considered reliable load-bearing bricks.

1. From the point of view of force, this kind of brick is usually used. Then from the point of view of safety, red brick is no problem. Now the rural areas to build two or three-story villas are mainly, generally brick mixed structure can be. From the advantages and disadvantages of the two materials, although the concrete has good plasticity before hardening, the construction process is simple and versatile, but the concrete has the disadvantages of self-importance, long maintenance period, high thermal conductivity, high temperature resistance, poor recycling of demolition waste.

2. Red bricks are cheap and belong to the finished product. Compared with concrete pouring, fewer processes, less labor time, low cost. If you consider the cost of housing, red brick cost is even lower. After the main body with red bricks, by the way, the four walls, internal walls and the need for partition walls are also good. This is done in one go so that the walls are not built twice for future renovation, thus saving costs. If you build a house with a concrete frame structure, the cost of materials and wages will be higher than a house built with red bricks.

3. Red brick houses are still quite traditional and human habitual thinking still plays a dominant role. Although I don't know which one is stronger and cheaper, when building a house, the first thing that comes to people's mind is red bricks. Of course, now with the development of society, there are concrete houses in the countryside. There is no lack of money, it saves money, and there is convenient machinery. These should be the main reasons. People are no longer limited to one style when building houses; they can build anything they like. This is also the progress of the society.

Nowadays, the country has begun to ban the burning of red bricks and the building of houses with red bricks. The main red bricks are made of clay. To burn red bricks, you have to build brick kilns and dig up mountains to get materials, which not only destroys arable land, but also causes a large consumption of clay resources and fuel. And coal is used to burn bricks, so the burning process will not only waste coal resources, but also cause air pollution.
