Plastering

 
Machine Sprayed Plaster
 

Machine sprayed plaster was originally used in civil engineering application, but now replaces traditional cement mortar in some building projects. The major difference between the mechanized plaster and the traditional cement mortar is that the former is mixed and applied mechanically whilst the latter is applied and trowelled smooth by hand. 

 

 

The use of machanised spraying has the merits of high productivity, low labour demand and less waste. The cost of the spray plaster material is HK27 per square metre and the labour cost is HK$53 per square metre, as at December 1999 prices.
