What is in brick mortar?

It depends on the age of the mortar. Today's mortar is made from sand, Portland cement and water. In very cold weather a plasticiser is added. Prior to about 1900 mortar was made from sand, lime and horse-hair.


Why should mortar not be stronger than the brick?

There's a saying that "a chain is only as strong as its weakest link", and pretty much the same goes for a brick and mortar wall. If the mortar is stronger than the brick, all that would happen if the wall would be put under heavy pressure is that the bricks would crack instead of the mortar. On top of that, cracked mortar is a lot easier to remove & replace than cracked bricks. Ideally you want the mortar to be just a tiny bit weaker than the bricks. You get a wall that's almost at it's max strength, but easy to repair.

What is the difference between brick veneer and brick masonry?

Masonry implies bricks, blocks, or stones held together with mortar. Bricks are fired ceramic. Blocks are usually formed concrete. And stones are formed naturally and quarried from the earth. They are held together with mortar. Concrete is used as mortar, but concrete can also be poured to make slabs and foundations. I think the difference is that concrete can be used by itself without being considered masonry. For example, even statues can be made from concrete by pouring them into a mold.


Why are expansion joints required in brick walls?

Even a well constructed slab will move. Without an expansion joint you will see cracks in the brick develop over time. A proper expansion joint is one where one side does not touch the other... not even mortar, then filled with silicone.
