Brick Mock Up

The construction team has created a mock up of the brick and mortar choices for the building.  It is located in the bus lane.  Mr. Finneseth, the FCPS Project Coordinator, gave me my first brick/mortar/insulation/weeping lesson and I will share with you. 

The two horizontal bricks have the same texture but are a slightly different color.  The mortars are also different colors.  The top and middle bands are the same on each side. 

More than you probably wanted to know about the brick.  FYI - weeping holes are the tiny holes located near the bottom of brick walls that allow water to "weep' out of the bricks since brick is not waterproof.
