MORTARS AND PLASTERS - a proportioned mixture of siliceous materials (sand, crushed stone) and cement (lime, Portland) which, after being prepared in a plastic state with water, hardens into a stonelike mass. Mortar is cement mix used to glue masonry units to each other, or other surface finishing materials like tiles, bricks, stones to a receiving structure like a wall or floor. Plaster is mortar applied to wall surfaces as a preparation or a hard finish coat.

BUILDING TECHNOLOGY I

1. 1.01

MORTARS AND PLASTERS CEMENT MORTAR - is a proportioned mixture of cement, fine aggregate and water. - For first-class mortars 1 part of cement should be added to not more than 3 parts of sand. - Replacing 10 or 15 percent of the cement by volume with hydrated lime gives greater workability and increases the strength of the mortar. - For rubble stonework, 1 : 4 will be much stronger than lime mortar. - For the top surface of floors and walks, use 1 : 1 to 1-1/2. - Mortar made with fine sand requires a much larger quantity of cement to obtain a given strength than mortar made with coarse sand.

1. 1.01

MORTARS AND PLASTERS CEMENT MORTAR - Mortar may be mixed by hand or mechanical mixers, the latter being preferred for large quantities. - When the mixing is done by hand, it should be done on platforms made watertight to prevent the loss of cement. - The cement and sand should be mixed dry in small batches in the proportions required on a clean platform. - Water is added and the whole remixed until it is homogeneous in color and leaves the mixing hoe clean when drawn out. - Mortar should never be retempered after it has begun to set

MORTARS AND PLASTERS PLASTER - is a mortar of cementitious material ( lime, gypsum or cement), sand and water which is applied in coats (layers) to masonry surfaces, lath or various types of plaster board to give a hard finish surface to interior or exterior walls and ceilings. - the word plaster refers to gypsum plaster and the words gypsum and plaster are often used interchangeably. - Fiber or hair is sometimes added to the mixture to give increased strength as when used for the first coat. - Plastering is done according to two basic methods: two-coat and three-coat. A three-coat job consists of : a first binding coat called scratch coat; a second straightening coat called the brown-coat; and a final coat called the finish coat. In the two-coat work, the scratch and brown coats are combined into one.

MORTARS AND PLASTERS TYPES OF PLASTER AND THEIR USES c. Portland Cement Plaster Mixed with water, sand and lime putty. Used for two and threecoat finish surfaces for exterior and interior walls and ceilings - Scratch and brown coats : 1 cement, lime putty, 3 sand. - Sand float finish : 1 cement, lime putty, 3 sand. Thickness of plaster coats depends on the type of material to which the plaster is applied. Generally, the total thickness is 5/8 on metal lath and on lathing board and gypsum block. In three-coat plastering work, the scratch and brown coats are thick at minimum; the finish coat is 1/8 with a minimum of 1/16 at any point. For two-coat work, the base coat is and the finish coat is the same as three-coat work.

This type of technique consists of applying two or three thin coats of plaster different colors and then cutting away certain areas of one or two coats to produce a three-dimensional colored design.

UNIT MASONRY STONE - Stone, together with wood and clay, are the basic building material of man. The history of architecture until as late as 1900 was largely the history of stone in architecture, - Stone was the structural material, the exterior and interior finishing material, the flooring material and in many cases the roofing material. - It was also used for all types of sculpture, statuary, and decorative and ornamental applications. - Today, stone is largely used as a surface finishing material for both the exterior and interior of buildings.

UNIT MASONRY BRICKS - are structural units of clay or shale formed while plastic and subsequently fired. - The manufacture of brick consists essentially of screening, grinding, or working the clay to the desired consistency for moulding, whether by hand or machine. - After moulding, the bricks are dried and then burned in kilns for many hours at high temperatures, approximately 2000F. - These processes purify the raw products, make it uniform and homogeneous, burn out all combustible matter, and result in a product which is both stable and physically permanent . - Standard size of brick is 3-3/4 x 2-1/4 x 8.

UNIT MASONRY CONCRETE HOLLOW BLOCK Concrete Hollow Block (CHB) is a hollow masonry unit, with two or three cells or cores, made of the following ingredients: water, Portland cement, and various types of aggregate such as sand, gravel, and crushed stone. Lightweight concrete hollow blocks are also manufactured with such aggregates as cinders, expanded slag, expanded shale or clay. Expanded blast furnace slag rates the highest in fire resistance, and due to its cellular structure, has high sound and thermal insulation quality. These are manufactured by machine-mixing the ingredients, pouring the mix into molds, and curing the block by air drying. A steam-and-pressure curing process is also used which can produce concrete hollow block in a few hours.
