Download Solution PDFExplanation:
- Pointing is the process of finishing and repairing the joints in masonry (like brick or stone walls) by applying mortar to the exposed faces of joints.
-
It is done after raking out old or damaged mortar to a certain depth and then filling it with fresh mortar to improve both appearance and durability.
-
It is typically carried out in exposed masonry walls where the joints are visible and form part of the wall's aesthetic and structural finish.
Additional Information
-
Stucco walls: These are already coated with a thick plaster layer; joints are not visible.
-
Plastered masonry walls: The plaster covers all joints, so pointing is not needed.
-
Wattle and daub walls: These use a wooden lattice and mud; no brick joints to point.
