Materials+Review


 * Materials Review **//Fast deffinitions//

In a building the materials are a very important. Those can make the difference in a project taking in count all the properties that it can have. Check these summarize about construction materials about we talk before (if you want more information of those materials you can see it in the links in the sidebar):

**Stone** : Used since manyt years ago. It's durable, scruptural and adaptable. Also is very expensive and difficult to transport. Stone is a useful material and gave to the construction a very interesting texture. Stone can be of different colours.



**Brick** : Mainly the mixture of clay and water. It can be used to make structural or facade's structures. Their colour is very importan because can change the sensation of the ambient.



**Iron** : This material has structural functions. Is an expensive material that is strong in compression but weak in tension. It can be combinated with **Steel** that is a very weight material that works very good in tension and in compression but a very important weakness is that loses strength in hig temperatures.



**Concrete** : It's the result of the mixture of water, cement and small rocks. It's a very good material working in compression but in tension. Concrete can be in fusion with other materials and is a very cheaper. Althought with some change in the tempeture it can break.
