A Study On Brick Construction Forms Of Buildings Of Chinese Eastern Railway

The building of Chinese Eastern Railway is unique in the Chinese modernbuildings and its brick structure form has become an important part of thearchitectural culture and the cultural representation. In aspect of building culture,the accessorial building of Chinese Eastern Railway has formed by the Russiantraditional for the construction of its distinctive charactreistics. In aspect of buildingtechnology，it has sharp contrast to the same period other Chinese Modern Buildingsas its main brick technology which is adapt to climate and culture and modeledadditional decoration for typical characteristics.Brick has the unique basic attribute as the commonly matersas of buildings ofChinese Eastern Railway. The type of brick and the diversity of grinding brickprovide the safeguard in rich building type from the aspects of characteristics ofbrick, and resulting in the rich construction type. Brick ontology attributes andadditional attributes commonly affect brick construction apperance from. Theontology attribute contains the performance of compressive resistance, easyoperation and simple workability and the additional attribute contains theauthenticity, affinity and decorative of brick. In addition, the climate and geographyfactors on the use of brick also has certain influence, which ultimately affect thebirck building form.To analysed the basic form of brick construction form of Chinese EasternRailway, the brick construction basic form is divided into four categories, which isplane masonry, linear masonry, surrounding masonry and other forms of masonry.Each of the masonry has the unquie characteristics.in the plane type masonry, brickof permutation and combination mainly in the form, including plane masonry formand the additional vertical masonry two forms. In linear masonry, brick has differentforms of linear as the backing, laying out a linear array structure form. And thelinear array could be divided into three categories, which are linear, line type andcurve type. In the surrounding masonry, the brick masonry construction around thedoors and windows and divided into two categories which are full surround type andhalf surround type. In the other forms of masonry, brick construction in accordancewith the apperance of the form, divided into three categories which are suspensionhanging type masonry, laying on the border of the parts of the nunction pointmasonry and imitation stone masonry―quoin‖type masonry.The potential brick building moudule chemical composition of Chinese EasternRailway is divided into module structure and module. In the brick constructionmodule composition, the modular of standard brick and a small amount of special specifications have great impact on form and size of the brick construction. Thusformed the break para and logic clear building form. In the brick building modulecomposition, we could find the basic module from different type of brick construct.And the same type of module or different type of module through the single assitivecomposition, subtraction composition, antaclastic composition or the combination ofseveral composition composition in order to fprm a rich variety of construction type.And it makes the buildings of Chinese Eastern Railway has strong identifiability.And also reflects the existing similar principle of composition in same area ofdifferent type of buildings or different area of the same type buildings. Thusconcludes the brick construction rules and performance characteristics.
