What is a stone tool?
The tools that are usually used in the facade of the building can be of different types. In the old days, many cement tools were used, but today, with the advancement of technology and the construction of precise CNC machines and lathes, stone tools are used. The benefit and advantage of stone tools is that they are much less difficult to implement than cement tools, and they will also be more durable in the facade of buildings. Another important point in this case is that because they are made of stone, they can integrate the structure of the building and create a more beautiful effect in the building.
Types of stone tools
Stone tools that are used in building can be divided into two categories.
* Longitudinal tools, ingots and cornices. * Inlaid stones such as flower and bush designs and symbols These artefacts are mostly used in the facade of buildings especially for the Roman facadeLongitudinal tools
Longitudinal stone tools are used in the edges between the floors of the building, ingots for window framing, the arch above the window, the edges of the roof, framing the borders around the entire facade and balconies. The width of these tools is between two centimeters and about 30 centimeters, which you can use at any desired length. Cornices with less thickness are used in the lower part of the walls in the area where a wall is connected to the floor of the building. Cornice tools are also sometimes classified in the category of longitudinal tools.
The stone inlaid tools of the flower and bush
Non-longitudinal patterned tools include capitals, pastons, crowns of flowers and bushes, and various symbols such as inscriptions. These tools are used at the top and bottom of the columns, the upper part of the window, the gables and the front of the building, which have a specific length and width. In general, the cutting method of these stone tools is very different from the usual methods of cutting building stone. This model of stone tool is produced by hand art and sometimes by CNC cutting machines. Of course, the precision and elegance of the production of these tools by machines is more than manual production, but in cases where the tools are produced by hand, they are considered an art and will have a higher price. In some cases, the work done by hand is comparable to the machine in terms of accuracy and elegance.
Building Stone Tool Price
The price of stone tools depends on several factors.
The type of stone Dimension tool type thickness Required size After determining all the mentioned factors, the price of stone tools will be determined. Sending the request for stone tools for the facade of the building should also be done by the expert architect of that building, because they should announce the determination of the size based on exact measurements and computer maps and 3D shapes.
Use stone tools for facade
Nowadays, different types of building stone and different tools are used to decorate it. An important point in using stone tools for the facade is where the tool is placed. The placement of tools is a point that every designer should keep in mind. For example, a simple half-round tool for headstocks and posts is too eye-catching to use a complex tool instead of a simple tool. Always keep in mind that simplicity is part of the beauty of the building. In some projects, the use of many and complex stone tools has not brought the desired result.
Roman stone tool
Roman facade means that a large part or the entire facade of the building is made of travertine stone, preferably undulating. In the Roman facade, there are more complicated tools and carvings than other examples. Experienced contractors have turned to the cost-effective yet beautiful light material, and the prefab Roman facade and Roman facade have become the tool of choice for first-time contractors.
Roman stone facade feature
In the Roman stone facade, the most stone is used to achieve the maximum glory possible. The use of light colors gives a regal appearance to any structure, therefore light and cream stones are the main stones to be used in the Roman stone facade. The use of this stone in places such as arches, columns and stone details and decorations makes the facade of the structure known as a Roman stone facade. The use of stone tools such as beautiful capitals and cow heads, pointed towers, the use of large and attractive arches with Embossed patterns, the use of inscriptions, throats, crescents and window frames are among the elements that are widely used in the design of popular facades and the implementation of Roman facades. The roof and columns are very important in the Roman stone facade, because with the increase in the height of the roof and columns, the grandeur and splendor of the building increases. Also, the use of large columns and capitals is more popular in the popular facade of luxurious buildings.
