Masonry ICC Exam | Q&A Latest 2024/2025 | 100% PASS Does not provide additional strength, but it does improve mortar plasticity, water retention, water tightness, and bonding ability. - Answer -Lime What ASTM is the standard spec for masonry cement - Answer -ASTM C 91 What ASTM is the standard spec for mortar cement - Answer -ASTM C 1329 High strength mortar recommended for use in reinforced masonry below grade or in contact with the earth, as foundation and retaining walls subject to high lateral or compressive loads; compressive strength is 2500 psi - Answer -Type M mortar Is medium-strength mortar recommended for general use; compressive strength is 750 psi, more flexible than S or M, which helps to reduce cracks in the masonry units and wall. - Answer -Type N mortar Minimum compressive strength of only about 350 psi. Very workable, sometimes used for repair. Generally limited to interior non-loadbearing applications. - Answer -Type O mortar Medium-high strength mortar for use in masonry where bond and lateral strength are more important than compressive strength; compressive strength is 1800 p
