BUILDING STONES Stones usually blocks or pieces of the
basic material rock.

CLASSIFICATION OF ROCKS
1. Igneous- formed as the result of the cooling of molten matter.
2. Sedimentary- formed by the action of water.
3. Metamorphic- structure changed by the action of extreme heat, pressure and various forces.

STONES USED FOR BUILDING PURPOSES
1. Rubble - includes rough fieldstone which may merely have been broken into suitable sizes. This is usually used for and filling material. Also called as escombro and lastillas.
2. Dimension (cut stone) – consists of pieces that have been cut or finished according to a set or drawings. Used for facings of walls.

STONES USED FOR BUILDING PURPOSES3. Flagstone (Flat Slabs) – consists of thin pieces, ½ inch. For walks and floors.4. Crushed Rock – Stones consisting of pieces varying in size from 3/8 to 6 in. and is used to a large extent in concreting.

GypsumA soft mineral consisting of a hydrated calcium sulfate from which gypsum plaster is made; colorless when pure as a retarder in portland cement.

GYPSUM PRODUCTS
a) Plaster of Paris – made from carefully selected white rock. When mixed with water to form a paste, it sets in about 15 to 20 mins.
b) Keene’s Cement – Highly resistat to moisture penetration and has a smooth surface.

GYPSUM PRODUCTS
c) Casting Plaster – made from specially selected rock and ground much finer than plaster of Paris. It is slower setting and cooler working.
d) Hard wall Plaster – a neat gypsum plater, containing hair or fiber, widely used to form the first (scratch) coat and second (brown) coat on plastered walls and ceiling.

GYPSUM PRODUCTS
e) Cement band Plaster– intended for application to concrete surfaces. Almost any finish plaster can be applied over the coat.
f) Finish Plaster– made specially to produce the finish (Putty) coat for plastered surfaces. It has to be mixed with hydrated Lime putty and water.

GYPSUM PRODUCTS
g) Prepared finish Plaster– requires only water. It contains no lime, so the plaster surface can be decorated as soon as it is dry.
h) Texture Plaster– Used when a rough surface is required.

GYPSUM PRODUCTS
i) Acoustical Plaster– calcined gypsum is mixed with a light weight – mineral aggregate to make a type of finish plaster that has a high rate of sound absorption.
j) Joint Plaster– For filling nail holes and covering joints in gypsum wall board.

Gypsum Products
- Made by casting in mold a panel consist of two outer shells 5/8 in. thick reinforced with viscose fiber and seperated by a core of hexagonal cells, it is made 2 feet wide, 2 to 6 in. thick and up to 10 ft. long. Each panel is tongue and groove along its long edges to form an interlocking wall.
4. Gypsum Precast Wall Panels

LimeUsed in the making of the finish or putty coat for interior plaster.

LIME
- The lime used is hydrated or slake lime which is mixed with water to form a plastic, putty like material to which is added gauging plaster. The mixture is applied in a thin coat over the bare plaster and troweled to a smooth finish. The lime in the putty begins to recarbonate, and this hardening continues slowly for a long period of time.
