-Sedimentary Stone (SOME COMMON TYPES)

Created by the compression of loose, fragments of existing stone or by the deposition of limestone particles in water; and metamorphic rock.

ARCHITECTURAL VENEER STONE

-Identify the composition and general properties of full bed depth vs. thin veneer stone.-Identify varieties and standard offering available in both.-Discuss strengths and limitations of both in common applications.-Discuss styles of stone and where to use. Web wall on rustic, Ashlar on traditional and European, Fieldstone on cabins. Use stone to blend into rest of architecture color, style and texture.

LANDSCAPE / HARDSCAPE STONE

-Identify the general properties and terminology of landscape stones.-Discuss strengths and limitations of varieties in common applications.-Discuss structural methods and common practices used in landscaping.

Page 26: Specifying stone

26

CUT / FINISHED SURFACE STONE

-Identify the wide varieties of sliced stone products and surfaces available.-Discuss strengths and limitations of varieties in common applications.-Discuss common applications for each type of cut stone and surface treatments.-Fastening systems for cut stone panels-Discuss procedures for specifying and communication of architectural details.

APPLICATIONS

There are 4 major Natural Stone Veneers design applications.

-Residential-Commercial-Interiors-Landscaping

CONCLUSION

-Natural stone (even limestone) is unique from every quarry. Make sure the color, performance and other properties of the stone are compatible with the client’s expectations. -A single quarry, group of quarries or real stone supplier cannot supply every stone for every application.
