Abstract:This research is conducted to study the physical and mechanical characteristic of mortar. The mortar used has a cement-sand volume ratio of 1 : 5. Then, PVAc White Glue is added to this mixture with various percentages of 0. 3.0, 6.0, 9.0, 12.0, and 15.0 percent of cement weight.
The water-cement ratio decreased as the increase of white glue PVAc percentage. The maximum and minimum water-cement ratio value of 1.12 and 0.717 were obtained respectively on the samples with 0% and 15.0% PVAc. The average dec… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
