The main construction materials used in areas of high Mehedinţiului are wood and stone. We will first deal of the latter, since it constitutes a complementary material, meaning that in Mehedinţi not find that the relatively numerous other areas of the country (around 15), houses with walls of stone than in extremely rare cases, wood here is the material of construction of the base.


Stone is used, however, almost always at the construction ground, either in the form of boulders enormi made over the house and old architecture layer, either in the form of sockets of different heights. As stone boulders we encountered very rarely in Mehedinti, unlike what happens in Valcea and Gorj for example, where such archaic frequency is relatively high. in contrast, high stone sockets are very common in Mehedinti, a plateau they reached heights Appreciable. I wrote thus to Prejna that the stone is very much used in fact not only houses but also the manors, the dividing walls of households and even wear. Of course, abundance of material at hand in this village located in the coastal mountains is an explanation. There is but one explanation that I checked it at Costesti, where the stone is also used, but in ways that we remember the architecture of neighboring Banat, ie housing is highly appreciated, soclul taking a floor or a half-developed  . Many of the sockets are built on high ground of level, their purpose is precisely to resolve the differences. Use a yellow stone, of the shore, in the form of irregular blocks and mortar with little connection. At the top of the house is reached by outside stairs, stone, very high, without roof, affording housing a southern air, found in the Danube, namely the south-east of Banat. Houses with high sockets, with two levels individually meet (more) Motru the valley at Negoeşti at Black Water is admirable specimens also houses high.



Above rooms stone from the bottom, from Ascension soclului - most often these rooms are plastered with var cellars - place, bears "a strong oak with 30-40 cm about 7-8 bears a large house. Over the bears sits "Fur" thick, all of oak, forming what is called, "bridge" over the cellar.


Soclul the stone is placed "feet" of Gorun of the house, which houses very old place, as I said on the rocks or straight corners on earth. At the very old houses, but only under the mountain near forests of pine and pine, feet were made of round pine trunks that end in the head, meeting with Scafa "round. Feet rectangular section with shoes were "right" with "cătoage" left out (ie, the band heads), or the wrists, slit in pieza, taking Cato qele-cut.


Old houses and walls were made all round the tree, as is known to Izverna at Prejna at Costesti, later făcîndu there are houses in oak, beech and ash. On top Cerna were still houses old trunks Gorun round, thin to about 15 cm, made all the system said in Scafa. Bârnele with rectangular section ends "straight key", with long ends left, or " Key wren, with severed heads. Heads left, called "cătoage" is known as "sponge", as the appearance of old ones, with jagged edges of rain and winds.


Houses poorest people were not the beams, but the thick fur of 10 cm. From a beam could be 3-4 fur, resulting in a clear timber economy. Fur end almost always right key, rarely in key wren.


The latest time when beam Long began to thin, walls built of beams is shorter (2-3 m) with "key jiţe" (ie "language") that catch the "puppies" with a hollow groove of the long, put up. One "dog" and be placed on either side of doors and windows.


Marriage over the horizontal beams, constructed in one or another of the systems described, the frame sits a large and powerful "cosorobilor", supported by the crown last called "great respect". Local names are differentiated by treating constructive habits of team work and what will be required for years his own terminology. Thus the top Cerna tetragon last crown is called prăgarul above, while the feet are called "prăgarul bottom. Main beam and "tends" (local name porches or "room") was called "tinclar.


On cosorobii were two ways, "cosorobii length (the front and back of the house) and" cosorobii corner (on the short sides of the house), support the căpriorii carved with a lăcas called "therapy" to ensure better joint with cosorobul. cosorobi the fight "lănteţii" and those shingle beech hobnailed wooden Gorun before time, when using chip was generalized, cover was made of "fur" thin, many long 2 m and 30-40 cm of late. beam setting, walls and various pieces of the roof was done in pişleag ", ie long wooden nails.

Roof of old houses was high, the height being determined by the length căpriorului which should be as wide house in less time, the roof is less short, eg for căpriorul chip is high as the width of the house, minus 1 / 4 of this width, and tile, roof is shorter, less the 1 / 3 of width. Căpriorului measurement is the "crop" to the top.

Type of roof is the general Romanian territory in four waters.

Also in this chapter of the technique in May to remember that houses old beams ends the side walls of the facade is covered with a piece called as in Gorj, "needle" having constructive role by supporting beams above, the so-called "horses" , and appreciably decorative role, in the end, I must say that Mehedinţi many houses are plastered and whitewashed, the coating layer being supported by "caneliar", ie the beating of caneliar cracked 'in two all over the walls.

The Composition and the Preparation of the mortar
Composition and common dosing of the mortar of lime plaster and cement shall conform to the norm of C17-82 Table 6, and the consistency of mortar for the different layers will be in accordance with Table 10 of that regulation.
Determining the characteristics of mortar coating is done according to the methods prescribed in STAS 2634-80 "Test Methods of fresh mortar and reinforced"
Technical conditions for the mortar will be according to STAS 1030-70 "ordinary lime mortar, cement or plaster. Classification and technical conditions"
Mortar will include the addition of 0.1 kilograms of glue to plastered surface.
The different layers of plasters and processes for implementing them differ depending on their position in support of and which shall apply as follows:
- On the brick runs in two layers: primer and Tinca
- The area of reinforced concrete (columns, beams, ceilings) runs into three layers: split, priming and Tinca.
Final thickness will be about 2 cm.
Work to be completed before the work of plasters:
Check finished work, which subsequently carried out, could cause damage to plasters (carpentry installation, siting pipeline facilities for water and for heating, siting conductors and other elements of electrical installations and others).
Preparatory Operations
Prior to execution plasters will be layer for support and training.
The main operations to be performed are:
- The brick walls will be consumed during settlement need to strengthen the mortar complete (2-3 weeks);
- The concrete will be dry;
- Control of their rigidity, inherent flatness, vertical, with employment within the tolerances allowed in the corresponding technical requirements;
- Brick masonry joints, the less deep areas of 3-4 mm, are clean and the faces of concrete too smooth to be able to ensure strength.
For correct application of technology will be applied to the methods outlined in the paper prepared by MCInd - IPC 1984 "-type technologies - plasters, headache. 38 - Drawing the area.
Areas plastered, checked, cleaned and set will be sprinkled with water and then apply by spraying a split of 1-3 mm thickness.
The prime is mandatory on concrete surfaces.
Consistency split is fluid, milk cement with a small addition of sand.
Applicable manual or mechanized ensuring the uniformity of surface coverage and compliance layer thickness, resulting in an area well rugged strengthened before applying primer.
Running primer
Primers (15-20 mm) is applied over split in one or two, one hour after application of the split of brick masonry and concrete for 24 hours.
Primers are applied manually or mechanized operations involving the application of one or two layers to the tales and horizontal or vertical operation level with the slide rule on witnesses (strips of plaster or metal components).
Primers will be applied from the bottom up.
Prohibiting execution of work in cold conditions while under 5 degree Celsius
Before the application layer will control the visible surface primer to make sure its dry, no irregularities, gaps, and possibly a lime granules unextinguished to avoid shooting after the last application layer.
Execution layer visible
Layer visible, made of mortar with the same composition with a layer of primer is an increased amount of lime paste and fine sand up to 1 mm for ordinary plasters.
For special plasters will add their specific materials.
Tinca layer thickness is less than 2-5 mm and has different ways of implementation depending on the type of finish and materials used therein.
In the paper are thus areas with plasters, decorative or polished plaster coat of materials like flour, mosaic of marble, with or without coloring.
Interior plasters will be polished plaster coat in doors and areas indicated in the project. They will run with the prescriptions of preparation and application of the norms contained in them and the instructions given.
Protection works
After execution plasters will take steps to protect their mortar to strengthen the following:
- High humidity, which delays the strengthening mortar;
- Drying of forced current of air, long exposure to drying, equipment overheating, which dishydration mortar and to contract the cracks appear in plaster;
- Strikes, vibration from putting into operation of the building ahead of schedule;
- Plasters before freeze drying them.
Finalize
After completing of the rooms are clean of debris of mortar fell during implementation and training to polishing plaster coat of paintings.
CHECKS IN ORDER OF BUSINESS RECEPTIONS
The checking operations relate to:
- The surface appearance of plasters inherent flatness, flatness and form vertical and horizontal edges
- Processing of rugged uniformity and color or shades
- The existence of cracks, scratches or spots
- Verticality and horizontality surface edges and profiles
- Total thickness of the layer of plaster in random cases
- Adherence layer coating
