About Construction Block Jointing Mortar
Block Jointing provided is a factory mixed mortar made up of cement, graded sand and blended with polymers to impart high strength and water retention properties even when in thickness of 2-3mm layer. This jointing imparts high adhesive strength increasing overall masonry strength & load-bearing capacity. This gives water-resistant finish, stronger, smoother and cost-effective. Block Jointing is specifically designed to provide strength & adhesion to walls constructed by AAC blocks, fly ash bricks, concrete blocks etc. This is a versatile high-quality mortar.
Construction Block Jointing Mortar Description
Block jointing mortar is a type of mortar used in masonry construction for joining blocks like concrete hollow blocks, AAC blocks, or other masonry units. It bonds the blocks together and fills the joints.
Key Features and Applications
Bonding masonry units: Mortar bonds blocks together for structural integrity.
Filling joints: Mortar fills gaps between blocks for a solid structure.
Types of mortar: Can vary based on mix design (cement, lime, sand).
Importance in Construction
Structural integrity: Mortar joints contribute to the stability of masonry walls.
Weather resistance: Properly filled joints help prevent water ingress.
