RESULTS FOR PLASTER

Definition: (1) a mixture consisting essentially of a cementitious material or materials, fine aggregate, and water that forms a cohesive and workable mass; (2) the act of placing such material.- ACI Concrete Terminology


Plaster consists of a cementitious material or a combination of cementitious materials, aggregate, and water. The material adheres to the surface and subsequently hardens, preserving in a rigid state the form or texture imposed during the period of plasticity. Plaster, also known as stucco, may be applied either to improve the appearance of the surface, to prevent rain penetration, or to obtain a surface that be cleaned easily. The two types of plaster mainly used for plastering in building are portland-cement-based plasters and gypsum-based plasters.
