We focus on delivering high-quality best engineering consultants in UAE solutions that ensure the durability and safety of your construction projects. A fundamental part of structural integrity lies in the effective use of mortar and grout - two vital materials that bond, fill, and strengthen masonry and concrete structures.
What Are Mortar and Grout?
- Mortar: A mixture of cement, sand, and water used to bond bricks, blocks, or stones together.
- Grout: A fluid material used to fill gaps, cavities, and reinforce existing structures, often poured under pressure.
Types of Mortar and Grout
- Mortar Types: Type M, S, N, and O, differentiated by compressive strength and application.
- Grout Types: Cementitious (standard, non-shrink), epoxy, and polymer-modified grouts.
Key Applications
- Mortar for masonry bonding and plastering.
- Grout for filling voids in concrete, anchoring bolts, and repairing damaged sections.
- Structural rehabilitation and retrofitting.
- Filling post-tension ducts and baseplates.
Challenges in the UAE Environment
- High temperatures and rapid drying affect curing.
- Salt and sulfate exposure in coastal zones.
- Soil conditions require specialised grout formulations.
