The production of masonry units should generally conform to the wants within the
2003 International code (IBC) Section 2103. Aside from mortar, assembling these
units are often reinforced appropriately by steel (rebar) that gives much strength to
structures.

Masonry stones are in various forms and set in several patterns, counting on
certain considerations. Such stones varieties and purposes are:
1. Ashlar - is a quarry cut to produce smooth, flat bedding surface that stack

BLOCKS
There are many sorts of blocks which are most generally used as masonry
materials.
1. The CHB or Concrete Hollow Block is used for all the types of
construction walls, partitions, dividers, fences, etc., it. Generally, a block
consists of an outdoor shell with a hollow center that's divided by two or
three vertical webs. The end unit may have flanges that accept mortar and
join with the opposite adjacent blocks (except blocks intended for corners
and therefore the end of the walls).

MASONRY TOOLS
Appropriate tools are adopted in masonry to suit the type of labor involved. It
also includes some carpentry tools like measuring tools, testing tools, and fastening
tools.
Classification of Masonry Tools:
1. Roughing up Tools
2. Surface finishing tools
Roughing up tools are tools necessary within the process of preparing, arranging,
forming, laying, and shaping of bricks, stones, and masonry blocks.
Tools of this type of work are mostly striking tools such as:
Brick Hammer - Stonemason's hammer, also known as a brick hammer, has one
flat traditional face and a short or long chisel-shaped blade. It can be used to chip
edges or small pieces of stone, cut brick or a concrete masonry unit, without
employing a separate chisel.
10
5. Cold Chisel - is a tool made of tempered steel used for cutting 'cold' metals.
6. Star Drill - a steel bore bit with a star-shaped point that is used for making holes
in stones or masonry.
7. Bolster - are used to help break through hard materials by hands such as stone,
brick, and metal. They have a handle and strong beveled edge blade that will cut
through material with the help of a hammer or mallet.
Surface finishing may be a process that needs a spread of tools, materials, and –
most significantly – highly specialized skills. One of the most technically advanced
types of surface finishing is mold making, where the surface of the mold has a
direct impact on the surface of the product being molded.
