Influence of Silicone pretreatment and wetting of brick on moisture penetration of brick masonry
High absorption brick were treated with water soluble silicone before being combined with mortar into brick masonry; resistance of brickwork to moisture was much superior to brick laid dry or soaked in water; treatment in some cases increased, in others decreased; strength of bond between brick and mortar compared with that for dry brick; panels were also cleaner upon outdoor exposure.
