Fig 5 shows the compressive strength for concrete cylinder (300mm x 150 mm) after 28 days for the ratio of 1:2:4. It is evident that the compressive strength is gradually decrease as the quantity
A mortar was designed based on CEM I 42.5 R Portland cement with different content of the applied additive in the amount of 5, 10 and 15% of the cement weight. In the course of experimental work, the bending strength of mortars heated at 20, 300, 500, 700 °C were tested.
For all cases, except for Type N mortar with a 5.1-inch flow, the compressive strength more than doubled when comparing cube strength to the typical mortar joint 3⁄8-inch-thick specimen strength. These results have significant implications related to the compressive strength of mortar in a masonry assembly.

In this experimental work tensile strength of mortar is determined with Nano ZnO. The water cement ratio is taken 0.5 and cement fine aggregate ratio is 1:3. It is found that while Nano zinc oxide added 0.5–2% strength increases at 0.5 and 1% at higher curing. Previous article. in issue.
For all cases, except for Type N mortar with a 5.1-inch flow, the compressive strength more than doubled when comparing cube strength to the typical mortar joint 3⁄8-inch-thick specimen strength. These results have significant implications related to the compressive strength of mortar in a masonry assembly.
The most common strength test, compressive strength, is carried out on a 50 mm (2-inch) cement mortar test specimen. The test specimen is subjected to a compressive load (usually from a hydraulic machine) until failure. This loading sequence must take no less than 20 seconds and no more than 80 seconds.
Cement Mortar. Cement Mortar is one of the most common and cheapest binding materials used in construction industry.Cement mortar is basically a mixture of cement, sand & water.It is used in various aspects of civil engineering works such as masonry, brickwork, plastering, flooring etc.There are two types, dry mortar and wet mortar.
The 1 to 4 mortar has but 70 per cent of the strength of a 1 to 3 mortar, and 46 per cent of the strength of a 1 to 2 mortar. The ratio of compressive strength to tensile strength is not quite constant for all periods of time, and for the several mixtures above given; but the compressive strength, or resistance to crushing per square inch, may

(2012) studied the mortar compressive strength for Ferro cement containing ternary mixes of silica fume, Portland cement, and superplasticizer as a water reducing agent. The results revealed that the compressive strength cement mortar enhanced with silica fume content [9]. Tayeh et al.

MORTAR MATERIALS. ASTM International maintains national standards for mortars and materials commonly used in mortars, as follows: Portland cement (ASTM C150, ref. 4d) is a hydraulic cement (sets and hardens by chemical reaction with water) and is one of the main constituents of mortar. Types I (normal), II (moderate sulfate resistance), and III (high early strength) are permitted according to
