Mortars and plasters—how to characterise hydraulic mortars

Archaeological and Anthropological Sciences, 2021
Mortars are heterogeneous building materials whose raw materials, manufacturing processes and application conditions have evolved continuously throughout history. The fact that apparently small changes in the components or dosages of mortars can affect their overall performance in the masonry makes the study of historic mortars a complex task that ...

Refractory Tile Installation: Mortar or No Mortar? [PDF]

open access: possible12th Annual North American Waste-to-Energy Conference, 2004
Some domestic waste incinerators [1] have operated successfully with refractory tile systems for tube protection without using mortar to bond the tiles to the tube walls. Most tile protection systems installed around the world employ a paste of mortar behind the tiles to develop a rigid fixing system, with the presumption that the mortar provides ...

Strength Comparison of Cement Mortar and Geopolymer Mortar

2019
In construction industry large number of buildings are repaired and retrofitted due to the decrease in the load bearing capacity of RC beams within the life span of the building. Repair materials with reduced carbon footprint and environmental sustainability have been in great demand by the construction industry worldwide.

Strength prediction model for cement mortar made with waste LDPE plastic as fine aggregate

Journal of Sustainable Cement-Based Materials, 2019
Non-biodegradable aggregate prepared from low density polyethylene (LDPE) plastic was used as partial replacement for sand in cement mortar. Various volumetric fractions of 0, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, and 60% sand were replaced using ground LDPE waste ...
