Evaluation of Workability and Boardlife of Masonry Mortars Using Mortar Workability AppartusLab ID 117

Use
This laboratory/field test method provides a procedure for determining mortar workability and boardlife on a continuous and automated basis.

Instructions
Mortar materials provided by the client or, if only the effect of cementitious materials is to be considered, laboratory sand or optional C144 mason sand will be provided by CTLGroup.

Results Produced
The apparatus generates a continuous workability curve from which certain workability parameters can be computed. These parameters are assembled in a final report, together with the workability rating and pertinent comments.

Time for Results
Generally from one week to 10 days.
