The most sensible way to extend your home is often to go up.

There can be many advantages, including the fact that you keep all your yard space. With building blocks getting smaller and smaller in the major cities, there often is no decision to make; to add more living space you have to go up!

It is quite likely, however, that the foundations and structure of the existing brick veneer building will not have been engineered to take the weight of second storey brickwork.

But you can certainly have matching brickwork upstairs, with The ABC System. Its lightweight design and bracing characteristics make it an ideal solution for upper storey extensions.

Can you tell in the photo at right where the standard brick veneer ends and The ABC System begins?

If you are a builder you probably know the answer, because you would recognisethat it would not be possible, without substantial structural work, to brick above the aluminium door and window! The ABC System requires no engineering or structural work whatsoever in circumstances such as this.
