Barn Renovations - Brick & Mortar - June 07, 2018
I smoothed out the top of the side foundation wall:
I placed a large cobblestone in the corner of the foundation because it is stronger than bricks:
I put small rocks and mortar down underneath the first layer of bricks to make a level surface:
I reused some old bricks for the first layer:
I placed some rocks on the exterior of the foundation to give some support underneath the bricks:
The first two rows will be buried underneath the driveway pavement so it does not need to look fancy:
I am mixing the mortar in a wheelbarrow:
The existing footing for the 6" x 6" that is holding up an iBeam makes a challenge to brick:
The third row of bricks will be look better because they will show from the outside of the building:
I used some high strength concrete mix on the exterior of the footing for the 6" x 6" so I can build bricks in front of it:
