A brick façade provides a beautiful, traditional appearance to a building.
When designing brick walls the following criteria must be taken into consideration. Brick walls absorb a lot of water – the water may even penetrate through the whole brick lining. To prevent the water from leaking into the insulation a proper ventilation gap must be designed. The gap must be solid, open and finless. To ensure proper ventilation of the structure, every third vertical seam of the second lowest layer of bricks should be left open.
The wall must also be designed so that water can run out of the structure.
