What is "masonry"?
Masonry is a construction method that involves building structures using individual units, such as bricks, stones, or concrete blocks, which are held together with mortar. This technique has been used for centuries and is valued for its durability and strength, making it suitable for various types of buildings, including walls, foundations, and arches. Masonry can be designed in different styles, from simple to intricate patterns, allowing for aesthetic versatility. Additionally, masonry structures are often resistant to weather, fire, and pests, contributing to their longevity and stability over time.
