He aha nga paera kara?

Flagstone is a sedimentary stone that occurs when sediment layers harden, usually underwater. It is composed of layers of strata of sand, clay, or organic sediments. When you hear the term flagstone, think of it as an umbrella encompassing several different types of stone. You will find common varieties of flagstone like slate that is popular in interior spaces, bluestone that is frequently found in cooler climates, and castle grey that is often used in exterior spaces. I’m going to discuss my two favorite varieties next: Castle Grey Flagstone and Bluestone.

Nga momo momo kara

Kohatu Kara Kerei Castle

Ko te karaehe o Castle Grey he koretake te tae me te kikorangi kikorangi ki te pouri hina. He tapa tapatapahia e te ringa me te mata koretake noa, he kakano ataahua. Ko tenei momo kohatu haki he iti rawa te tiaki me te tino roa.

Ko Bluestone tetahi Momo Kara

I mua i taku tiimata ki te rangahau i nga momo paera o muri, kaore au i te mohio ko te kowhatu puru he momo hakihaki. I tino rangirua te whakaaro ki ahau. Kia maumahara, he maha nga momo kowhatu haki, ko tetahi kowhatu puru. Ka hangahia te Bluestone i te whakakotahitanga o nga matūriki i roto i nga awa, moana me nga roto. Ka whakamanahia e Bluestone te ahua mau tonu, ina koa i waenga i nga tipu me etahi atu otaota.

He aha matou i whiriwhiri ai i te kowhatu kara o Castle Grey

Now that we’ve discussed flagstone and the several different varieties, it’s important to note that I tino i hiahia te kohatu puru mo to matou kainga. I taku tiimata ki te tarai i nga whakaahua whakahihiri, i pinea e au etahi kaainga moemoea me nga patios puru. I tenei wa, kei te miharo pea koe he aha matou i whiriwhiri ai i te kowhatu kara hina o te whare rangatira ki runga i te kowhatu puru. He tino pai ki ahau te ahua o te bluestone, a kua moemoea ahau kia mau ki roto i to maatau iari. Heoi, he maha nga tohunga i whakatupato kia kaua e whakamahia i roto i te rangi mahana na te mea ka tino wera i raro i nga waewae. E noho ana ki Charleston, South Carolina, he maha nga marama wera me te hiahia he kohatu e pai ana mo te whanau mo te takaro i muri. Kare matou i pirangi ki te maaharahara mo te rehu wai ki te whakamatao i ia wa ka whakaaro matou ki te haere ki waho ki te takaro, ki te whakangahau ranei.

I tua atu, i te whakatairite i etahi atu whiringa paera rongonui mo ta matou kaupapa patio, i kitea e matou he maha nga mea e makuku ana i te wa e makuku ana ehara i te mea pai rawa atu mo nga tamariki. Te kakano maori o kowhatu haki hina ka iti ake te pahekeheke, ka noho haumaru ake mo to maatau whanau.
