alignment of vertical cells, affording maximum size openings for reinforcing of walls.

2.2 Cement mortar mixture shall be 1:3. Water shall be dependent on workability required.
Reinforcement shall be 0.60 V by 0.80 H using 10 mm bars. Plastering mixture shall be 1:2.

2.3 Concrete hollow blocks shall have an average strength of 700 psi unless otherwise specified.

by means
of 20 nails spaced not more than 4 inches apart around the contact surfaces. All structural
lumber
shall be coated with one coat of Solignum wood preservative.

3.4 Lumber to be used shall be sun dried Tanguile.
