CONSTRUCTION DETAILS OF CAVITY WALL:-Dropping of mortar, bats etc.:- During construction of a cavity wall, it should be seen that mortar , bats, etc., do not fall in the hollow space. The presence of such material in the hollow space seriously affects the working of a cavity wall. For this purpose, a wooden strip of width slightly less than that of the hollow space, is supported on ties and it is raised as the work proceeds. Also, some bricks at the bottom are left out and bats, etc. Falling in the cavity are removed from these holes. When the work is completed, this bottom portion is sealed by filling it with bricks. It also be seen that the vermins or mosquitoes do not find access in the cavity. - Study24x7
