Specification of Brickwork, Masonry and Waterproofing

Abstract

This chapter deals with the drafting of specification clauses covering brickwork, masonry and waterproofing work. It is desirable that a logical sequence of items should be adopted for each section of work, preferably beginning with materials clauses and following with particulars of workmanship. It will be appreciated that the detailed requirements vary from job to job and that the typical clauses produced aim at giving a guide as to their possible form and content.
