Step-by-step instruction

At the first preparatory stage, the most important point is the choice of the place where the roaster will stand for cooking kebabs. It is necessary that the place was chosen correctly and not interfere with others. To do this, it is recommended to listen to the following tips:

  • It is worth remembering that the building is an object with increased fire hazard. For this reason, the brazier is better placed away from home, outbuildings and other objects that can easily catch fire.
  • The roaster should not be located far from the resting place, as this may cause some inconvenience. Ideally, you will put the brazier near the gazebo where the holidays take place, or near the summer kitchens. To create more comfortable conditions, you can build a wide canopy, which will simultaneously cover brick from the rain, and at the same time the benches and the table will also be protected.

  • It is recommended to equip the site, which was intended exclusively for the brazier and all auxiliary equipment. It is not recommended that there be flowerbeds or beds near this zone. High temperatures can cause all plants to disappear. It is necessary to consider how to approach this zone comfortably, namely, to make paths to it.
  • Do not place garbage cans and toilet areas next to the broiler as this will not look aesthetically pleasing.

The next stage consists in the selection of the material from which a barbecue roaster will be constructed. In our case, this is a brick. It is best that it be heat-resistant and not destroyed. This material is fireclay bricks. He is also known under the name "oven".

In order for the construction to be strong, the mortar must be made from clay and sand.

In order to use the facility for several decades, it is worth choosing a quality brick. It is this material that constitutes its basis. In the case of high-quality material on the hearth it will be possible to cook kebabs for many years.

In order that the street brazier was strong, it is worth paying attention to its basis. That is, you need to prepare building materials for its construction.

The foundation will require the following materials.:

  • Crushed stone
  • Stones.
  • Cement.
  • Plywood or boards (for formwork).
  • Sand.
  • Fittings.

For the foundation will need to use metal

Also, you need to purchase the tools that will be needed during the construction period.

These include the following instances:

  • Bucket.
  • Shovel.
  • Trough for cement kneading (concrete mixer can be used).
  • Master OK.
  • Circular saw.
  • Level.

It is recommended to develop a project for the construction of the mangal. You can take a project that was already developed by someone. In this case, the work will be easier. And also, it will help to calculate the right amount of materials. A small stock is acceptable, but large surpluses are not profitable and useless.

The next step is to fill the foundation.. This stage is considered basic, because further construction depends on the foundation. The foundation is necessary only for the stationary type of brazier. For a portable product, this process is not needed. After the foundation has stiffened and is ready for further work, brick laying is carried out.

The board
Before starting the laying of bricks it is recommended to pour water. After 24 hours have passed, you can begin the process. Also, you can dip it in water for a few seconds immediately before laying. This is done in order to better its adhesion with clay.

The order of laying bricks cost to carry out according to the finished scheme. When there is a desire to independently develop a scheme, it is better to do it on a piece of paper in the cell.

Laying brick is better to start from the corner and head towards the central part. It is important to periodically check the grill level and plumb.This will detect inaccuracies and correct them in the future.

After that, you need to start laying the central part of the product, namely, the firebox.

It may be already pre-cast from concrete, or it can be made of brick.

If the grill will serve as a barbecue, then at this stage you need to decide where the grill will be installed. It is installed on the reinforcement bars, which are located in the walls of the product. In order to be able to change the levels of the lattice, you can make several projections.

After that, wind walls and a smoke box are built, which is attached to the columns and gradually decreases in diameter. Some schemes do not include the erection of a pipe to isolate smoke.

As a result of such a sequence of steps, you will get the simplest brazier. To protect it from precipitation, you can install over it a visor made of metal.

The final stage of the construction of the barbecue is the finish and canopy.

A canopy over the product to be cocked to extend its operation. It can be done in two ways:

In any case, precipitation will not fall on the brazier. From the point of view of design, a canopy over the brazier is a good option.

In order to build a canopy over the entire building, you need to install special concrete bases along the perimeter. They can be made not only from concrete, but from metal or wood.

The board
In case of choosing wooden supports, they should be covered with a special tool that will make them heat-resistant. Or install them at a distance of 16 cm from the product.

As for the roof, it can be constructed from any material. Fit into the overall composition of the covering, made of the same material as the roof of the house.

Brazier can be left as it is. It is enough to process a little brick machine for grinding. Also acceptable option when the bricks are covered with special paints. Decorating the design of the building decoration of decorative stone. In addition to these options, you can use a plaster finish. In this case, the product will be more refined.

Today it is difficult to surprise someone with a fireplace in the dacha. Now more and more often they give preference to other buildings that will be relevant and useful for the suburban area.

These include:

  • street stove;
  • B-B-Q;
  • special smokehouse;
  • braziers in the form of a cauldron.

Next, we consider the features of the construction and use of these structures.

To do this, you can use the following raw materials:

  • Fire-resistant brick and aerated concrete. These materials can withstand high temperatures.

It is necessary to approach the choice of material thought out.Aerated concrete is cheaper, but a brick oven looks much aesthetic.

The important question is the choice of the main location of the outdoor stove. Well, when the construction of outdoor products was provided at the beginning of construction work on the house. If, however, the decision to build this construction was made later, then you need to follow the same rules as the construction of the barbecue.

This attribute of rest is done in the following sequence:

  • Masonry foundation.
  • Laying the base of the furnace.
  • Chimney installation.
  • Installation of arbor walls, in which the stove will stand, as well as equipment of the enclosing territory.

Facing an outdoor stove

As for the decor of the outdoor stove, there is a large number of options. You can decorate the product using a special decorative plaster. It can also be revetted. As a decor, you can use tiles of various design and design.

There are these types of simple furnace finish:

  • Whitewashing and coloring.
  • Plaster.
Sequencing
  • To reduce the surface roughness you need to wipe it with a brick, and then process it with water.
  • We treat the surface with a primer.
  • We paint the building with paint. It is better to choose on a glue base.
  • In the case of whitewash, then skip the previous stage, and instead of paint take lime. You can add salt to it. This will help achieve a better result. To add a blue tint, a small amount of blue is added to the lime.
  • To whitewash was high quality and lasted a long time, on the surface in the lime, you can add ultramarine or ocher.

If the design contains elements of metal, for example, the doors, then they can be painted black. So that it does not peel off and was heat-resistant, it is better to choose silicon, organic paint.

If plastering was chosen as a decor, the oven is manually dipped and then whitened. This decor needs to be updated every year, but this is easy to do without the help of specialized services. Enough newly formed cracks cover with a mixture of water, sand, clay and cement.

Advantages of such facing:

  • The surface of the tiles can be easily washed and wiped.
  • The coating of the tiles has a large heat transfer.

Since real and regular tiles are made by hand, they can differ among themselves, for example, in shape or size. Therefore, before the furnace lining process, you need to sort the material according to shape and color.

Tiles are placed using a thick solution. They are attached to the pins of wire. The joints between the facing material should be no more than 2 mm. They are rubbed with a special tool, for example, albatross.

Outdoor Furnace Tile Finish

Tile - One of the options for facing the outdoor furnace, which is common among users. For cladding use the following varieties of such material:

  • Majolica. It is a ceramic tile, the outer side of which is glazed.
  • Terracotta. This is an analogue of the previous version. It differs only in the fact that there is no glazed surface in it. This tile is made from special clay.
  • Clinker tiles. The production of this type is made of several varieties of clay, which is chosen highly plastic varieties. This tile is pressed and fired with high temperatures.

Due to the fact that the furnaces have uneven heating throughout its entire area, there is a high probability that in certain places the tile may crack.
