11. MORTARMORTAR
Mortar is a pasty material formed by the addition of water to
a mixture composed of an aggregate (sand) and a
binding material (cement or lime) which may be
handled with a trowel. The mortar units the individual
bricks together. Generally, following types of mortar are
in use,
o Mud mortar
o Cement mortar
o Lime mortar
o Cement lime mortar
Mud mortar is used for the temporary construction.
Cement mortar is used for permanent structures. In
order to select a suitable type of mortar for a given
construction, we must know the type of desired finish,
the magnitude and nature of super-imposed load, the
effect of weathering agencies and the importance of
structure.
