.......some stuff........cement.......

.......mortar in bricks , .......have a 75 year , strength limit , and then it turns back into sand .....and shock horror , gets blown away by the wind ....

and worse still a small earth quake , or strong puff of wind , will push it into a pile of bricks ....

So go around and have a close look , as you are walking past every brick building , the older brick walls or buildings will need re-plastering to save them , and other peoples lives ....

cement has improved in quality , from what was made in the day , 75 years ago , and the strength now exceeds 100 years , and then give , every one a big scare , when all the power stations and dams , road ways , fall over ...


and have a happy easter teddybear teddybear

Here, here, and I speak about improvements of quality of cement, it has to be water impenetrable. Ten years ago in motel construction I used cement for a laying 1/3, that is 1 shovel cement three sand. And today even 1/2 doesn't give such durability. And now I consider better to build wooden houses. They as cement doesn't crumble during elements, and strikes blow to the person less.
