APPLICATION
Application
DUVAREL® is mixed manually (4-5 L water / 25 kg bag).
Mortar preparation:
· First pour the water into a plastic container, then add DUVAREL® and mix.
· Allow to rest for 5 minutes, then remix until a homogeneous consistency is obtained.
Apply the prepared mortar to horizontal and vertical surfaces with a trowel. Position the masonry units by tapping them from the top and sides with a mallet.
During masonry construction, the junctions between masonry units and columns or shear walls should be formed using DUVAREL®.
