Mar sin, cad é Flagstone?

Flagstone is a generic term for many different types of rock. In the beginning, a stonemason chisels or strikes larger stones. And as a result, it breaks up into thick, flat sheets. Next, these thinner sheets are then broken up into flagstone-sized pieces.  There are abundant varieties of rock that masons cut and then shape into flagstones.

Ar dtús, is iad na carraigeacha is boige agus is fusa chun cruth a chiseláil ná carraigeacha dríodair, lena n-áirítear cineálacha cosúil le gaineamhchloch, scealla agus aolchloch.

Ar an dara dul síos, cuimsíonn cineálacha níos deacra carraigeacha igneous mar eibhir nó basalt. Ar deireadh, baineann na cineálacha is déine leis na carraigeacha meiteamorfacha, mar shampla Grianchlochít agus marmair freisin.

Tá dhá phríomhchineál in-éileamh ann Flagstones: patio and select. Comparatively, Patio pieces type of Flagstone is smaller, ranging from 12” to 18” and thicker. And are most often used for stepping stones, outdoor pathways, or patios. Due to their smaller size, they are typically palletized lying down, preventing breakage during shipment. Contrarily, select flagstone, known as “standup,” comes in large, thin slabs of 18” to 36”. Due to their large size, they are usually palletized vertically. Flagstones generally make the formation of many shapes and sizes, including rectangular and square. Nevertheless, they are also available in more natural, jagged varieties.
