7 TOOLS MATERIALS

I will ask my student if they have any idea what we are going to discuss today. After asking
them, I will introduce the new lesson

2. Lesson Proper
Masonry is the structural construction of component parts laid in and bound together by a
material called mortar. These individual materials which are introduced in any structure for
various purposes and patterns may be tile, brick, granite, limestone, glass and concrete block,
stucco, marble, stone, and travertine. The production of masonry units should generally conform
to the requirements in the 2003 International Building Code (IBC) Section 2103. Aside from
mortar, assembling these units can be reinforced appropriately by steel (rebar) that offers much
strength to structures.

Stone Types and Varieties of Bond Pattern

Masonry stones are in various forms and set in different patterns depending on certain
considerations. Such stones chosen for various purposes have several varieties:
1. Ashlar is a quarry cut to produce smooth, flat bedding surface that stack easily. It is generally
cut into small rectangles with sawed or dressed face.
2. Random ashlar is an arrangement of stones where in various sizes are used to make
courses that are not continuous for the whole length of the wall. However, course ashlar has
a formal appearance.
3. Rubble is a stone that is irregular in size, shape and texture. Field stone is one type of
rubble. Random rubble is usually dry-laid but can also be mortared. Course rubble has a
neater appearance than random rubble but more difficult to construct and requires a large
selection of stones.

BRICKS. There are three classifications of bricks

1. Common Bricks - are made from clay and sold at the market.
2. Face Bricks - are used for exterior and interior walls and other architectural structures.
3. Calcium Silicate Bricks - are made with alumina and silica and are used for furnaces and
other structures that require higher temperature up to 178 °C.

Brick Laying and Patterns

Bricks are laid in horizontal or vertical layer with a string or nylon chord as guide. The vertical
layer of bricks is guided by a plumb line wherein the mortar having a thickness of 3 to 10 mm. is
placed between layers.

BLOCKS.
There are many types of blocks which are most widely used as masonry materials.

1. The CHB (sometimes called as concrete hollow block) is used for all the types of
construction walls, partitions, dividers. fences. etc. Generally, a block consists of an outside
shell with a hollow center that is divided by two or three vertical webs.. The end unit may have
flanges that accept mortar and join with the other adjacent blocks (except blocks intended for
corners and the end of walls).

MASONRY TOOLS
Appropriate tools are adopted in masonry to suit the kind of work involved. It also
includes some carpenter tools such as the measuring tools, testing tools, and fastening tools.
They are classified into two categories.

1. Roughing up Tools
Roughing up tools are those tools necessary in the process of preparing, arranging, forming,
laying, and shaping of bricks, stones, and masonry blocks. Tools of this type of work are mostly
striking tools such as:
