20
Q

Joint vs mortar

A

Joint- a mortar bond between masonry units

Mortar- a cement mixture of sand lime and cement mixed with water

21
Q

Course

A

Arrange bricks in a row
Of headers- short end facing out
Of stretchers- long end facing out

22
Q

Bond

A

Pattern of arranging bricks to ensure structural stability, offset the courses within the wall spread out the load evenly instead of straight down( off set rows of brick)

23
Q

Quoin bricks

A

The corner condition where bricks interlock

24
Q

Application types of concrete

A

Poured in place- into forms where it will set finished and remain indefinitely
Molds- forms that are premade to hold liquid concrete until it sets to keep shape
