BRING USED AT PLASTERING
Introduction
Plaster is a thin layer of mortar applied over the masonry surface and it acts as
a damp-proof coat over the brick masonry work. Plastering also provides a
finished surface over the masonry that is firm and smooth hence it enhances
the appearance of the building.
The primary objectives of plastering are to protect the surface from
atmospheric influences, to cover the defective workmanship in masonry, to
conceal porous materials, and to provide a suitable surface for painting.
