  4. London stock brick - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_stock_brick

    It has been common since the widespread availability of Portland cement to see London stock brickwork repointed using much stronger cement mortar. As repointing consists of replacing the outer 20–40 mm of mortar, the effect of this is to make the outer 20–40 mm of the brickwork harder and stronger than the interior of the wall.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mortar_joint

    In masonry, mortar joints are the spaces between bricks, concrete blocks, or glass blocks, that are filled with mortar or grout. If the surface of the masonry remains unplastered, the joints contribute significantly to the appearance of the masonry. [ 1 ]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lime_mortar

    In restoration masonry, the bits of shell are sometimes exaggerated to give the viewer the impression of authenticity. Unfortunately, these modern attempts often contain higher than necessary ratios of Portland cement. This can cause failures in the brick if the mortar joint is stronger than the brick elements.

  7. Sulfate attack in concrete and mortar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfate_attack_in_concrete...

    In masonry, sulfates produced by the oxidation of pyrite in clay materials can be present in bricks. They are gradually released over a long period of time, causing sulfate attack of mortar, especially where moisture movement concentrates the sulfates. [4] Seawater: sulfate is the second anion present in seawater after chloride.

  8. Building material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_material

    Recent work on aging of lignocellulosic materials in the cement paste showed hydrolysis of hemicelluloses and lignin [24] that affects the interface between particles or fibers and concrete and causes degradation. [25] Bricks were laid in lime mortar from the time of the Romans until supplanted by Portland cement mortar in the early 20th century.
