Abstract

Mortar has generally two deficiencies, low durability and low strength. The present trend is toward increasing the durability and strength of mortar to meet the modern construction demand. For that purpose we have done the gradation of sand particles which is used as an aggregate in mortar. A modified mortar of same design mix proportion (1:3) and (1:4) but varying the percentage of different sizes of sand to achieve higher durability and strength. Mortar specimens were tested for compressive strength at age of 7, 14 and 28 days of curing in potable water. The properties are then compared with the controlled mortar mix.
