Plastering
 
Q. Why plastering is required?

Plaster protects structure from temperature variations; external attacks of sulphates, chlorides, etc. Plaster also provides smooth & aesthetic surface on RCC & Brickwork surface.
 
Q. What precautions should be taken during plaster works?
  • Preferably use cement which releases low heat of hydration. A blended Cement is a good choice.
  • Use optimum water at the time of mixing.
  • Do not use dry cement on the plaster surface.
  • At the junction of Brickwork & RCC, chicken mesh or fiber mesh may be used.
  • Wet the surface before plastering.
  • Cure the surface for at least 10 to 12 days.
