OBJECTIVE: TO CONSTRUCT THE FLEMISH BOND

EASILY

TOOLS AND EQUIPMENTS

Hammer
Tape
Bucket
Cement
Sand
Bricks
Ladle
Spatula
Tri-square
Safety Tools
PROCEDURE

1. Get all the equipment from the locker.

2. Get the mortar and follow the ratio for mortar which mix it with
water.

3. Blend the water and mortar for a few minutes until it fused
together.

4. Prepared all the brick that we need to use and starts count how
many brick that we wanted to use.

5. Put some mortar on the ground before apply the first layer of brick
which is Flemish Bond.

6. Identify whether the level of brick balanced by using spirit level,

use an angles to make sure the angle accurate as follow which is 90
degree.

7. For the second layer, put some mortar on the top of first layer
before we put some brick on the surface.

8. Identify whether the level of brick balanced by using spirit level,

use an angles to make sure the angle accurate as follow the first
layer which is 90 degree.
 9. Make an adjustment if the level is not balanced, to identify whether
the level balance or not we use spirit level to justify the level of the
brick.

Get all the apparatus or stuff and put it in one places, to neat the
workplaces.

After clean up the workplaces, we need to clean up the apparatus

before put it back inside the locker.

Conclusion

There a lot of things we learn from this task whereby it is something

new that we never do it this before or practise on it. From this task we
get the knowledge which is know
the principles of bricks. Besides that indicates types of bond use for joint
the brick. Know thename of material use for the construction which is
the apparatus that use for brickwork.
