As an architect, I understand that the brick veneer system is not an efficient solution in terms of thermal performance. The brick wall is a thermal mass, that is, a heat accumulator. In hot climates, the mass remains warm for several hours after sunset, maintaining heat flow into the house when outside temperatures have dropped and the house should be cool. In cold climates, as it is insulated inside, thermal mass remains cold on the outside and cannot be used to keep the house warm because it does not receive heat from internal heating.
The double brick wall system is more efficient as the insulated cavity is in the middle of the walls and the thermal mass of the internal wall is protected. Thanks for the excellent video!
Hi Edmar, you are correct. There is another form of construction where the brick wall is built to the inside and the timber wall external. It provides better thermal performance. Thanks for your comment. Very valuable information.
Thanks, mate. It is very easy to understand. Your content is unique.
Thanks Juan. Glad it's helpful :)
In double brick both leaves are built at the same time. The outside leaf is finished before roofing, windows, doors, plastering or any other finishings are started.
Thanks for the video mate. Very clear and proud to have an expat like me talking about construction here in Australia. Well done!! Will send the video to a friend coming from Brazil which has no idea about the constructions types over here!!
Excellent. We are all in this together. Thanks very much for the support.
@@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus Please if you have chance make more videos showing and explaining on the plans… that did help a lot as a Senior Drafter!!
I hope you can do more videos like this. These type of videos are extremely helpful. Cheers mate 👍
Thanks Shane. Any suggestions on what type of video you wanted to see?
@@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus I'm a Licensed Carpenter who is currently studying to be a residential construction supervisor at the HIA and to also get my builder’s license. That’s why I find your videos to be pure gold!
The type of content I would love to see would be read & interpret plans & specifications, Australian building codes & standards, and structural principles.
Once again awesome channel mate thank you 🙏
@@shaneashby5890 that's great brother. Getting your builders license will be a huge step up. We may do some work together eventually. I do have a couple of videos on how to read drawings. The standards unfortunately there is no workaround. You will have to read them as boring as it may be. I'm planning some videos on the minimum builders and architects must know about structural engineering.
@@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus I look forward to those videos cheers mate.
Love your work Gabriel. Your efforts are not in vain. Keep up the good work
Thanks Brian. Glad you are with us since the beginning :)
Great explanation! Thanks for creating this 👍
Thank you for the video! Great work!
Thanks Renata :)
Muito bom seu video.. parabéns
valeu pelo apoio Tulio
I want to work there in Australia to learn that techniques so that I can apply that method here in our country.
Sounds like a great plan.
Thanks for your video, and I found it really informative. Would you be kind to answer 2 questions please:
Q1. In the brick veneer wall, does the outer layer brick resist to lateral loads like bracings?
Q2. In the double brick wall, does the outer brick layer can resist the vertical loads or only inner layer resist vertical loads?
Brick veneer is not used for bracing. It doesn't provide any load bearing function.
The outer layer can resist vertical loads, depending on the design, however typically it is a continuous wall up to the roof and the inner layer stops and starts.
Brother thanks for the vedio.
I want a complete design vedio of whole these kinda of structure.
And also estimate of this structure please
Thanks mate, enjoyed the video, Could you please let me know how to get the civil technical specifications?
I think for resi you can find them in the NCC or your council website.

Vc acha q seria uma boa eu fazer carpintaria no senai p tentar se esponsurado, mesmo n tendo mt exp?
se vc quiser ir pelo caminho da carpintaria tem outros tipos de vistos que vc pode pegar tbm. Acredito que vc va ter que estudar carpintaria novamente aqui do mesmo jeito por ser uma exigencia dos vistos (acredito eu). Se eu fosse vc eu focaria em aprender ingles e ja vir pra Australia o quanto antes.
How do I know the type of construction of a house when I have an inspection?
Knock on the external and internal wall. You will be able to tell most of the times. Research the state. In western Australia most houses are made of brick for example. QLD timber etc.
@@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus Nice method. one more question. how do I tell which type of base the house is sitting on ?
Personally, I prefer concrete over timber/steel.
@@potassiumsuperoxide You will be able to see underneath from outside. Timber flooring is often suspended over the ground. If you jump on the floor, you can also feel the vibration.
Hy dear watching you from pakistan we normally do brick construction in pakistan also cavity i m project manager in construction from last 15 years if you have any reliable construction company refrence if they need any person in this regard really appritiated.
Thanks
How do you feel about Hebel?
they are pretty popular. Good insulation and energy efficiency. I haven't used their load bearing products though. Have you used them?
300 km/hr???
wild hey
Fala meu irmao de patria, eu estou na Australia tambem, em Melbourne, chegue tem 20 dias, estou procurando trabalho, se souber de algo, ja tirei o White Card, tenho PPE, good english rsrsrs, me ajuda ai por favor
Fala meu brother. Eu moro em Brisbane haha mas daqui a pouco vc acha algo com certeza. A gente vai se falando. Boa sorte ai
I can tell by the wording of you first assessment that you are misrepresenting a timber framed house. Because it is not only timber, id is also steel. That is where your most basic misconception lies.
