Use of Bricks in Urban Planning

In Urban Planning, the brick has a lot of uses. The first use that i´m going to tell you, is that of course the brick is used in the construction of buildings, and those buildings are an important part of the city. Also, you can used it when you are creating public spaces, like sidewalks, local streets, boulevards, parkinglots, squares, etc. Also, bricks have a decorative function in the city, you can create mosaics and different designs in the spaces that I said before. And it also gives you a way to mix nature with constructed spaces. But i think the most important use of bricks in urban planning is when you want to create a certain type of space, I mean, a space that is not to rigid and not to fragil, and this is a space that give you a different sensation that when you´re in the city or in the country, because it makes you fell comfortable.

Stones

Stones are a very good material that is been used for building since the stone age. This material has very different uses in construction. It is used for floor support, beams and lintels and also to provide monolithic support. You also can used it on roofing, and this is the art of creating the roof. Using stone in construction can give a lot of advantage (for example: it is durable, adaptable, and you can used it in its natural state) but it also can give you disadvantages, because this material it is difficult to transport, quarry, and cut. There is a lot of different types of stones that you can used in construction, some of them are: the Rubble, this is the simplest and cheapest stones; and the Ashlar Massory, which is the most strongest and suitable for monumental architecture. As you can see stones can be very usefull at the time to construct, but it used it´s really up to you.

A good paragraph

To write a good paragraph, you´ve got to have in consideration several important things. First of all you will need a topic to talk about. Then, you will have to express that topic in one sentence, this sentence is called topic sentence. After you write, and express the topic sentence you most have to write other sentences that complete and add information of the topic, this senteces are called Comments. To put the comments together, you must use words called transitions, this words will help you to connect all the ideas that you want to express of the topic. It is important to say that this four things that I recommended before are not rules that you have to fallow in that exactly order, they are only a few things that you´ve got to have in mind before writing a paragraph. I mean, you can first write the comments and then the topic sentences, whatever you want, but you always have to write coherent things.
