Causes of damage to building facades

Facades of buildings are damaged due to the following factors such as:

• Drumming
• Fraction
• Dandruff
• To be stained
• getting layered
• Removal of stones And facade bricks
• color change
• The initial appearance of the facade

Causes of facade injuries:

• Partial or general meeting of the building
• Freezing and freezing of water or excess moisture in the facade or subfloor
• Shrinkage and expansion of ice and successive melts with severe temperature differences
• Dandruff or sulfation of facades due to the use of water containing water-soluble sulfates used to make cement and gypsum mortars and …
• Concrete is also used in the production of concrete facades, although these sulfates may also be present in the brick itself or in other mortar compositions.
• Fires, especially in concrete facades
• Cracks and generally damage the surface under the work
• Improper mixing of compounds and components in concrete and cement facades as well as mortars
• The use of high temperature fluctuations for fast trapping of coatings and mortars used in facade construction, for example, the use of heating devices.

Facade building goals

As mentioned at the beginning, another purpose of facade construction for buildings, in addition to maintaining its durability and stability, is the beauty and appearance of the building.

Which makes the building more pleasant and attractive
And finally, the increase in visual weight and overall beauty of the area will result in its construction.

Such a view will certainly have a better and more favorable effect on the vision and morale of the residents and viewers of the building.

Therefore, the above points are solutions
They are more efficient in terms of durability, strength and efficiency and increase the useful and productive life of the facade
And they play a lesser role in the beauty of the facade.

Therefore, in order for the facade of the building to have a remarkable visual appearance,
In addition to the above structural guidelines, efforts should be made to comply
with architectural rules and approaches to increase the attractiveness and intimacy of the building
in the facade as much as possible, in addition to the fact that the building has sufficient structural resistance to internal and external forces.

Architectural criteria

By observing the above criteria and, of course, by using the creativity and individual innovations of the architect
And even the building,
of course, while moving within the framework of the rules of exterior architecture
of the building and facade construction, has a desirable and ideal appearance.

Some architectural criteria:

• Arrange the windows using rebar and beautiful frames with beautiful and appropriate colors, curves and right.
• Use reflective and reflective coatings Especially in the view of the columns next to the entrances.
  This is because it reduces the appearance of the column and eliminates its obstruction.
• Creating decorative grooves on the surface of the walls, which not only does not have a negative effect on the sound and heat insulation properties,
  Rather, it reduces the apparent thickness of the wall, resulting in better visual visibility and overall more beautiful view of the building.
• Creating curvature at the top of the building entrance, which while emphasizing the presence of the entrance, increases the importance, attractiveness and intimacy of the facade.
• The presence of white coating on the facade, especially at the entrance of the building, which is actually a kind of lighting,
  Which attracts more attention and beauty of the facade of the building.
• Use darker and heavier colors (for example, granite stones) at the bottom and lighter colors at the top of the facade.
  Increases the visual weight and attractiveness of the structure
  And in a way, it gives the viewer endurance, stability and strength in the facade and the building itself.
  And that makes you feel more confident and relaxed.
  In fact, it allows the structure to be divided into upper and lower parts, which makes the height and overall appearance of the building less noticeable.
• Another trick that can be more effective in beautifying the facade,
  The use of white lines (frame or white facade) around the windows, especially the circular windows, or with shapes close to it.
  Because it gives them a more formal composition and a more appropriate appearance.

Facade is actually an intermediary and, better to say, a language that expresses the building with its surroundings. Therefore, its correct and principled implementation means strengthening and consolidating the building and its expressive power
