Mortar Mix
What is Mortar Mix?
Mortar mix is a collection of concrete and silicon that is used to hold together structure type blocks. When water is added, it becomes a workable paste that sets hard. It is used with materials like bricks and stones to make walkways and walls. There is evidence of the use of mortar in cultures around the world. Iranian and Babylonian structures used mortar from about 2900 BC on. The timing Egyptian pyramids used the mud or clay combination, while later constructions used gypsum or lime.
This extended on with the Greek and Romans who improved the use of concrete and mortar in building their elaborate city schemes. In later cultures, the water soluble element lime became the main active ingredient, which was ultimately damaging to the stability of many structures.
