TYPES OF PATIO
Patio types can be determined by the materialsused to construct a patio, as well as how thepatio lies in relation to the normal ground level.
Brick, cut stone, natural stone and patio paversprovide the easiest to install patio surfaces,
requiring only that you excavate, level and setthe pieces into place, with either sand or mortarto fill the joints. Concrete patios, however, requirebuilding a frame, pouring and smoothing the wetconcrete.

TYPES OF PATIO

brick patios can be more difficult to install thanother home additions because the stonematerials used to make the patios come indifferent lengths and widths.
A lot of home builders, as well ashomeowners, choose this popular type ofpatio surface because they are cheap and
very easy to install. Their consistent kind of thickness is what
makes them easy to install, but they aretypically more expensive than normal stones

PATIO DIMENSIONS
If space allows for only a two-seat bistro table, thesize of your patio should be 6 to 7 ft in diameter(this is the minimum).
If you want to put in a dining table with chairs, theminimum space required is 12 to 14 feet. This size
will be sufficient for a 48 round table. It also givespeople space to walk around comfortably. But ifthe table is bigger, you will need more space.
A living room patio will include a couch, a coffeetable, several chairs plus other accessories. This
will necessitate a minimum diameter space of 16to 18 feet. It is also a good idea to have at least a3 foot pathway furniture free. This will permit forexcellent traffic flow.

Step 1:Decide how you will use the patio.
Will you be dining & cooking on the patio?
Will you be relaxing around a fireplace or fire pit?
Will you be reading a good book and enjoying the sunshine?
Step 2:Think about how many people you would like the patio to accommodate.

Step 3:Measure your yard to get an idea of how much space you have to work with.
Think about how big your patio can be as well as the best placement in your yard.
Patio Sizing Tips:
Buy your patio furniture first and arrange it where your patio will be. Use the space

Juliet Balcony
they are usually part of an upper floor, narrow indepth and with a balustrade only at the front.
it is named after Shakespeares Juliet, though infact the play itself, as written, makes no mentionof a balcony, but only of a window at which Juliet
appears. Juliet balconies surround French or double doors
and allow them to be opened inwards forincreased light and ventilation, while preventingthe occupants from falling out.
Effectively acting as a restraint, they are notregarded as true balconies because they haveno platform to stand on.

A balcony increases the amount of spaceoffered by a room or an apartment, and canmake a room seem larger than it is.
Balconies also add architectural interest to abuilding and offer additional design options
that include color, balustrade and platformshape and decorative gardens and plants.

BALCONY RAILINGS
The main purpose of balcony railings is the feature ofsafety.
As far as the balcony railings are concerned, metal isthe ideal material for constructing them. Apart fromstrength, metal railings are available in stunninglybeautiful designs that impart a gracious and elegant
look to the exterior of the house. Wooden balcony railings are one of the most popular
types due to their sturdiness, low cost, and designflexibility. Railings made of wood are usually able tosupport the weight of various individuals leaning overthe structure, for example.
Both safety and harmonization with the overall buildingdesign are considered when choosing a buildingmaterial for outdoor balcony railings.

BALCONY RAILINGS
Iron balcony railings provide many of the samebenefits as their wooden counterparts. Likewooden railings, devices made of iron alsohave drawbacks like degraded physicalappearance over time. Iron also tends to be a
more expensive base substance.
Another popular material used in balconyrailings is aluminum. While this type requires
less maintenance, it is usually more expensive.On occasion, designers use both aluminumand wood for a greater artistic effect.

BALCONY DIMENSIONS An average dimension of a balcony is in the four feet range. That amount of space will already
allow you to some seating space and an area to install a minute garden. If you can have itbigger, thats better because you will have more design options.
As with any home designing project, size is a major concern when building a balcony. Todecide on the amount of space that you will have to dedicate to your balcony, you have toconsider a few things.
-First, examine how much space is available for this purpose. Your balcony can go right besideyour room or outside the family room, located at the second or higher floor. If there is aclearing, you can build a balcony in it. The dimension of a balcony shall be based on the lengthof your room or just about the available space in that area.
-Second, you will need to ensure that the size of your balcony will be able to accommodate agarden set and some amazing plants. For a small balcony, a two-piece garden set completewith a table is okay. If you have a bigger space, you may bring in a few extra seating options.Of course, do not forget to put in some greenery to complete the look and the ambience.
-Third, make sure that the size of your balcony will be able to accommodate you and a guestor two. It is not a good idea to have a balcony that is cluttered and overcrowded. It must beone neat space that will encourage some quiet time as well as meaningful bonding moments.
As a last note, make sure that you pay attention to the access door that you will use in relationto the size of your balcony. If you have a smaller space for a balcony, you must use a sliding
door because a swinging door will need an allowance. If you have a large space for yourbalcony, you can either install a standard swinging door or a slider and have no problems withit.

BALCONY DIMENSIONS
Balconies come in many different sizes
Many are only a few feet wider than the window or doorwhich provides access to the balcony from the inside ofthe house and only deep enough for a chair or a pottedplant.
Other balconies may extend the entire length of abuilding and even wrap around corners of the structure.These larger balconies often can be accessed throughdoors or windows in several different rooms.
The size of a balcony is generally only restricted by thestrength of the supports on which it is built.

BACKYARD TERRACES Terraces provide a way for you to get full use out off a backyard
that is located on a slope, while affording you a place to enjoy thetranquility of the outdoors.
A backyard terrace should be used as an extension of your home.
By varying the elevations of a sloped backyard, you are creatinga way for water to drain properly, as well as building flat, usablesurfaces in an otherwise unusable landscape.
Commonly, backyard terraces are formed by concrete pavers,bricks or flagstone. Others are built from wood planks, similar to a
deck.
If your backyard is sloped, building a backyard terrace isbeneficial in that it gives you usable space but also prevents soilerosion.

The size of your porch will depend on thehomeowners zoning rules. It will also depend onhow much space is available.
Many homes have a 12 x 12 (3.6576m x
3.6576m) front porch. A back porch measuring14 x 20 (4.2672m x 6.096m) will be sufficient inmost cases.
The choice of the porchs location is somethingeach individual has to decide. Another factor thatwill affect the porch design is the size ofthe house. A small porch in a big house will lookawkward. By the same token, a large porch in asmall house will be out of place.

Things to consider:
Selecting Porch Roofs and Columns
The rule with porch roofs is they should matchthe style of your house roof. This will give it aunified look. In most cases, medium to largeround columns are recommended. Constructingcolumns in pairs will give the porch dimensionsmore depth and mass.
The columns should be spaced just a few inchesapart. If you want the columns to look large, setthem on square pedestals. You can havethe porch framed with curved balusters orspindles rows.

Things to consider:
Walls, Ceilings and Decking
For some privacy, frame the porch with a low wall.Construct the upper ledge as high as the windowsills onthe first floor. This gives you some privacy withoutdisrupting the harmonious appearance of the house.
The decking must be rot and pest resistant. A goodchoice is mahogany with satin urethane. For a moreattractive appearance, set the decking with a pictureframe pattern. The outer edge should be parallel with thesteps.
Traditionally, the ceilings are set in blue to simulate thesky. Nowadays you can paint them in any color you like.You can also put on urethane.
