‘Mortar’

A Buildingtalk guide

Start with the news release H+H Multi Plates large format aircrete components from H+H Celcon, which we summarised at the time by saying "Building with aircrete gets even quicker with H+H's new generation of products for the Thin Joint System.". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release CEMEX and designs on mortar from CEMEX: "CEMEX UK points out some of the factors to consider when making your mortar choice and predicts increasing flexibility for designers as mortars move towards a strength based specification.".
 
In October 2008, we covered the news from Durisol UK - take a look at Durisol eco-friendly wall form system which says: "Durisol wall form system of interlocking recycled wood and cement blocks has been chosen by Atlantic Developments for a new apartment scheme in Ilfracombe.".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Medway Galvanising, Playground gate adapted for production plant, as well as 21st century floor for Mining Museum from Sika, and Monarfloor Bridgestop wins a Robust Detail from Icopal.
