Chimney construction is a process that involves the installation of a chimney on a structure. The most common type of chimney is the masonry chimney, which is constructed of bricks and mortar. Chimneys can also be made of metal, stone, or concrete. The first step in constructing a chimney is to create a foundation. The foundation must be able to support the weight of the chimney and must be level. Once the foundation is in place, the next step is to build the frame of the chimney. The frame is made up of vertical supports called studs and horizontal supports called joists. 

After the frame is complete, the next step is to install the flue. The flue is a pipe that runs from the firebox to the top of the chimney. The flue must be made of a material that will not conduct heat, such as clay or porcelain.
