3.1 Preparation
3.1.1 Protection
a. Forms and Shores: Where required, construct forms to the shapes, lines, and dimensions of
the members indicated. Construct forms sufficiently rigid to prevent deflections which
may result in cracking or other damage to supported masonry and sufficiently tight to
prevent leakage of mortar and grout. Do not remove supporting forms or shores until the
supported masonry has acquired sufficient strength to support its weight and construction
loads to which it may be subjected. In no case shall supporting forms or shores be removed
in less than 10 days. Wait at least 16 hours after grouting masonry walls after applying
uniform loads and wait an additional 48 hours before applying concentrated loads.
b. Wall Bracing: Brace walls against wind and other forces during construction. Allow
sufficient time between lifts to prevent cracking of face shells of hollow masonry units. If
blowouts, misalignment, or cracking of face-shells should occur during construction, tear
down and rebuild the wall at no additional cost to the Owner.
3.1.2 Surface Preparation
Clean laitance, dust, dirt, oil, organic matter or foreign materials from concrete surface upon which
reinforced masonry is to be placed. Use sandblasting, if necessary, to remove laitance
3 of
from pores and expose to the aggregate.
3.2 Laying Masonry Units
3.2.1 Wet Masonry Units
Do not wet concrete masonry units. Do not lay units having a film of water on the surface.
3.2.2 Embedded Items
Build in wall plugs, accessories, flashings pipe sleeves and other items required being built-in as the
masonry works progresses. Fill cells receiving anchor bolts and cells of the first course below
bearing plates with mortar or grout. Fill spaces around metal doorframes and other built-in items
with mortar. Point openings around flush-mounted electrical outlet boxes in wet locations, including
the flush joint above the box with mortar. Do not embed aluminum items.
3.2.3 Bond Beams and Lintels: Install bond units, reinforced as indicated, filled with grout. Install open
bottom type bond beam units over cells to be filled. Place wire mesh or small mesh metal lath under
open bond beam units if used over cells not to be filled.
3.2.4 Unfinished Work: Step back-unfinished work for joining with new work. Do not use toothing
without the written approval of the Owner's Representative. Remove loose mortar and thoroughly
clean the exposed joints before laying new work.
3.2.5 Placing Units: Lay hollow masonry units so as to preserve the vertical continuity of cells filled with
grout. The minimum clear horizontal dimensions of vertical cores shall be 50 mm by 75 mm.
Masonry bond units at corners. Anchor intersections by reinforcing bars as indicated. Adjust each
unit to its final position while mortar is still soft and plastic. If any unit is disturbed after mortar has
stiffened, remove and relay in fresh mortar. Keep chases, raked out joints, and spaces to be grouted,
free from mortar and other debris.
3.2.6 Bond Pattern: Lay masonry units in running bond.
3.2.7 Cutting and Fitting: Wherever possible, use full units of the proper size in lieu of cut units. Use
power masonry saws for cutting and fitting. Concrete -masonry units shall be wet cut. Make cut
edges clean, true and sharp. Make openings carefully so that wall plates, cover plates or
escutcheons required by the installation will completely conceal the openings and will be aligned at
the bottom with the masonry joints. Cut webs of hollow masonry units to the minimum required for
proper installation. Provide reinforced masonry lintels, above openings over 300 mm wide for pipes,
ducts and cables trays unless steel sleeves are used.
3.2.8 Mortar Joints: Spread bed joints with mortar for the full thickness of the face shells. Where only
cells containing reinforcement are to be grouted, spread cross webs around such cell with mortar to
prevent leakage of grout. Butter head joints for full thickness of the face shell and place the units.
Avoid fins of mortar that protrude into cells to be grouted.
3.2.9 Jointing: Tool joints when the mortar is thumbprint hard. Tool horizontal joints first. Brush joints to
remove loose and excess mortar. Mortar joints shall be finished as follows:
a. Flush Joints: Flush cut joints in concealed masonry surfaces and joints above electrical
outlet boxes in wet areas. Make flush cut joints by cutting off the mortar flush with the
face of the wall.
b. Tooled Joints: Tool joints in exposed exterior and interior masonry surfaces slightly
concave. Use a jointer of sufficient length to obtain a straight and true mortar joints.
c. Joint Width: 9 mm wide.

3.3 Placing Reinforcing Steel
Prior to placing grout, clean, reinforcement of loose, flaky rust, scale, grease, mortar, grout, or other
coating which might destroy or reduce its bond with the grout. Details of reinforcement shall be in
conformance with ACI 315. Do not bend or straighten reinforcing in a manner injurious to the steel.
Do not use bars with kinks or bends not shown on the drawings. Placement of reinforcement shall
be inspected and approved prior to placing grout.
3.3.1 Positioning Bars: Position vertical bars accurately at the centerline of the wall. Maintain a minimum
clearance between the bars and masonry units of 12 mm and between parallel bars of one diameter
of the reinforcement. Hold vertical reinforcing in place using metal support, centering clips,
spacers, ties or caging devices located near the ends of each bar and at intermediate intervals of not
more than 192 diameters of the reinforcement.
3.3.2 Splices: Locate splices only as indicated. Stagger splices in adjacent bars at least 600 mm. Lap
bars a minimum of 40 diameters of the reinforcement or 600 mm, whichever is greater. Welded or
mechanical connections shall develop the full strength of the reinforcement.
3.4 Placing Grout
Use a hand bucket, concrete hopper or grout pump. Place grout in final position within 1-½ hours
after mixing. Where grouting is discontinued for more than one hour, stop the grout 25- mm below
the top of a course to form a key at pour points. Place grout to completely fill the grout spaces
without segregation of the aggregates.
3.4.1 Low Lift Grout Method
Place grout as masonry is erected at a rate that will not cause displacement of the masonry due to
hydrostatic pressure of the grout. If mortar has been allowed to set prior to grouting, remove fins
protruding more than 12 mm into the grout space. Rod or puddle grout during placement using a
long 25-mm by 50-mm wood stick or a mechanical vibrator.
3.5 Tolerance
Lay masonry plumb, true to line, with course level. Keep bond patterns plumb throughout.
3.6 Field Quantity Control
3.6.1 Grout
Employ a qualified testing laboratory to proportion and test grout. Do not change laboratory
established proportions or use materials with different physical or chemical characteristics in grout
for the work unless additional evidence is furnished that the grout meets the specified requirements.
3.7 Cleaning
After mortar joints have attained their initial set but prior to hardening, completely remove mortar
and grout daubs or splashing from exposed masonry surfaces. Before completion of the work, make
out defects in joints in exposed masonry surfaces fill with mortar and tool to match existing joints.

PART 3 - EXECUTION
New masonry surfaces should be allowed to cure at least 14 to 28 days. Surface should be clean,
free from oil, grease, dirt, and loose grit or mortar. Wet masonry surfaces first with water before
applying the mixture to avoid abrupt drying and cracking of the applied modified cement, under hot
and sunny condition.
3.2 APPLICATION
a. Add cement to the waterproofing material slowly while stirring to prevent lumping. Pass
mixture through a fine strainer to sift out lumpy materials. Ensure intimate mixing, stirring
as often as possible to avoid settling. Keep mixture proportion constant for a uniform
texture. Mix enough material to prevent waste. Workability of the waterproofing mixture
is 30 minutes, while potlife is 2 hours.
b. For vertical surface such as firewalls, apply 2 coats of the mixture by textured roller or 3
coats by brush.
c. For mortar patching, apply the waterproofing mixture using applicable trowels.
