Boral Bricks Build something great™ Bricks Range VICTORIA, TASMANIA & south australia Boral Bricks Why BRICKS? When it comes to walls, today’s natural clay brick is unrivalled in performance, looks and long-term value. Choose from the following six brick styles Strong and safe Bricks won’t twist or warp, rot or decay, erode or dent. Escura® Natural character Smooth Face 7 Velour9 Made from clay and shale, no two bricks are identical giving each home its own distinct personality. Nuvo ® Temperature control fusion10 aspire12 Brick homes even out temperature fluctuations because of their mass. Homes made from brick are slow to warm up in summer and slow to loose heat in winter. Acoustic performance The density of brick makes for a quiet home, with reduced external sound such as aircraft and road noise, compared to lighter weight materials. Elan ™ GALLERY14 signature16 Florentine LIMESTONE 17 opal bush 17 Woodstock ™ FIRE RESISTANCE Boral bricks meet the requirements of all six categories of the Bushfire Hazard building standard, AS 3959 - 2009, including the highest category BAL- FZ, as all bricks are greater than 90mm thick. HARCOURT 18 pioneer19 arcadia20 Oasis LOW MAINTENANCE coast22 villa23 Bricks have negligible routine maintenance. This is an important factor to consider when looking at the “whole-of-life” cost of your home. Horizon ® RIVERSIDE24 NATURALS26 Boral Bricks | Victoria, Tasmania & South Australia The energy life cycle Never before have new homes been built so responsively to our landscape, climate and lifestyles. An energy-wise home or building will use the best combination of sustainable building considerations such as site orientation, wall and ceiling insulation, ventilation and materials to reduce energy consumption and in turn greenhouse gas emissions. Energy efficient design It’s all about taking a long-term view on our impact on the environment. From the initial sourcing and manufacture of materials to the need for ongoing maintenance and temperature control, it’s the efficient use of energy over the lifespan of a building that counts. Orientation Together with good design principles, bricks can help you take advantage of the weather when it’s hot or cold. When around 38 per cent of energy use in Australian homes is directed toward artificial heating and cooling*, this is serious long-term value. Ceiling insulation acts as a barrier to heat flow and is essential to providing year-round comfort. In regards to walls, this is where high thermal mass double brick cavity wall construction comes to the fore. * http://www.yourhome.gov.au/technical/pubs/fs61.pdf Home Energy Use, Baseline Energy Estimates 2008 There are four factors crucial to the energy performance of your home: Site orientation or the position of a building relative to the sun provides the opportunity to take advantage of the naturally available energy. With northerly living areas the use of extended eaves will block the higher summer sun while allowing the low winter sun to enter your home. Insulation Ventilation Cross-ventilation, with openings on both sides of a home, is the best way of cooling naturally. Fresh breezes will circulate better in open plan living spaces however internal walls are still required for their thermal mass, helping moderate temperatures. Vents should also be installed in the roof space to help regulate air flow year-round. Thermal mass TIP Conserve energy over the long term by using a strong, longlasting and non-toxic material. Materials with high thermal mass, or ability to absorb and store heat energy, are important in most Australian climates where there is a need to average out temperature extremes. The density of clay bricks effectively delays the flow of heat through a wall by as much as 8 to 10 hours, producing a warmer house in winter and a cooler house in summer. Diagram: Think Brick Australia 3 4 Boral Bricks | Victoria, Tasmania & South Australia How to Choose Bricks Step 1: Style Research and explore ideas to try and establish the type of house you’d like to build. Examples of house styles include Contemporary, Traditional, Beach, Georgian and Homestead. The type of house style and design will greatly influence the type of brick chosen. Step 2: Location The location of your property and the conditions it is subject to will determine your need for exposure grade bricks and mortar joints. Exposure grade bricks are made to withstand severe coastal conditions, including homes subject to air borne salt spray. These bricks have enhanced durability ideal if your home is located up to 1 kilometre from a surf coast or 100 metres from a non-surf coast, on land with high saline soil, or is near a polluted atmosphere (such as an industrial site). TIP Look for the symbol that identifies Boral bricks as exposure grade. General Purpose (GP) grade bricks are suited to all other external wall applications. Step 3: Colour & Texture The colours and textures now available in brick provide myriad opportunities to be creative. Look at the big picture and think about roof colour, the guttering and fascia finish of your home, along with doors and window frames. But keep it simple on the colour front by limiting your selections to one or two trim colours. Focus instead on textural detail and decorative effects to create a point of difference. Texture is a key feature in house design, and is easily achieved through a balance of finishes and surfaces that contrast and complement. EXAMPLES OF TEXTURES: Smooth bricks have a consistent texture and almost ceramic appearance with straight edges. Velour bricks have a tightly grained texture and straight edges Torn face bricks have a dragged or ripped appearance across the face which gives them a weathered look. Boral Bricks | Victoria, Tasmania & South Australia Rolled bricks are treated with distinctive patterns prior to firing, producing a variety of textures. Tumbled bricks have a rough texture and uneven edges which give them a rustic look. Fritted bricks have a glass-like substance melted into the surface for a glossy or mottled appearance. TIP For professionally developed colour schemes that take the stress out of selecting exterior finishes, refer to the Boral Colour Inspiration cards at www.boral.com.au/ colourinspirations. These colour cards recommend modern tonal combinations across bricks, pavers, roof tiles and complementary fascia & gutter trim options. Step 4: Size Different brick sizes are available and can be used for the whole house, patterns, window sills, internal features, facades, formal areas, fireplaces and architectural details. The standard brick size is 76mm high x 230mm long x 110mm wide but some colours are available in a slimmer 50mm high size or a larger 162mm high. Slimline Standard Height Double Height Step 5: Mortar You may be surprised to know that the mortar joint and colour can considerably alter the appearance of your bricks. Your mortar can help achieve either a relaxed light feel or a dramatic contrasting effect. For example, a cream mortar with light coloured bricks to achieve harmony or bright white mortar in contrast to darker bricks for a more distinct look. The mortar joint refers to how the band of mortar between the bricks is finished. Raked joints are most commonly known however Rolled or Ironed joints complement nearly all brick and house styles. Flush joints provide a flatter look by minimising shadow. Types of mortar joints Common mortar colours: • Natural or grey • White or off-white • Cream or buff • Coloured mortar to match the brick colour Raked Ironed Flush Struck TIP Wherever exposure grade bricks are used, finish with an Ironed or Rolled mortar joint to minimise erosion from salt. 5 6 Boral Bricks | Victoria, Tasmania & South Australia | Escura Escura ® DISTINCTIVE SHARP LINES when only the best will do Aesthetically superior bricks, exuding today’s contemporary style Achieve strong, clean lines and uniform colours Sharp edges and a refined texture Outstanding quality and consistency Smooth Face: Brown Smooth Face: Choc Tan Boral Bricks | Victoria, Tasmania & South Australia | Escura7 Carry through the clean crisp look of Escura by using white mortar and ironed (or rolled) joints. ® Smooth Face: Choc Tan Smooth face Smooth Face Slimline: Red 50mm standard NEVADA CREAM PEARL GREY CINNAMON JUTE CHOC TAN FLAME RED MELBOURNE RED These products are ‘Exposure Grade’ and can be used for building in coastal areas or harsh soils. 8 Boral Bricks | Victoria, Tasmania & South Australia | Escura Escura ® DISTINCTIVE SHARP LINES Smooth Face Slimline: Brown 50mm Smooth face CREAM 50MM slimline BROWN 50MM RED 50MM Boral Bricks | Victoria, Tasmania & South Australia | Escura9 Providing an understated warmth to man-made building materials, Escura is suitable for today’s composite building design. ® Velour: Pearl Grey Velour: Pearl Grey Velour nevada cream pearl grey These products are ‘Exposure Grade’ and can be used for building in coastal areas or harsh soils. 10 Boral Bricks | Victoria, Tasmania & South Australia | Nuvo Nuvo ® NEW GENERATION STYLE Distinctly different finishes for the latest looks in brick Be confident with exceptional solid colour Design-focused and infinitely adaptable Fusion: Victorian Blue (laid in vertical stretcher pattern) Fusion: Blue Rio making first impressions last Fusion BLUE RIO STANDARD VICTORIAN BLUE domino Boral Bricks | Victoria, Tasmania & South Australia | Nuvo11 Bold design and a bolder palette will ensure your home is brewing with original ideas.
