Cement - Air Content and Density

Air Content
Mortars are used for a variety of purposes, the
most common being as a bond between brick and
blockwork.

Both air content and density are important if durability
and strength of mortar is to be adequate. Specifications
often require minimum levels of air content and density.

The equipment described enables standard tests to be
performed on mortars and similar materials.
