dc.description.abstractThe bonding between the masonry unit and mortar plays very important role in strength of masonry. To improve the bond strength, we need to concentrate on the mortar properties. The present study focusses on the bond strength of masonry by adding reinforcement for the mortar. The hemp fibre and chicken mesh are used as a reinforcement for the mortar. For the test masonry triplets are used with mortar of proportion 1:4. The optimum dosage for hemp fibre is found to be 2% and chicken mesh is added along with mortar joints. The bond strength was tested in universal testing machine and the results have compared each other. From the study it was found that, the bond strength of hemp fibre reinforced triplets is found to be 27% higher than the chicken mesh reinforcement and 73% higher than the unreinforced mortar masonry. © 2023
