Non load bearing Brick interior wall that partitions off the bathroom. The cross section sides of the wall are to receive replacement door frames. The other 2 sides of the wall already retains the old cement plaster coat.
I need to apply about 0.5 inches of cement plaster coat onto the brick and remanants of the old cement plaster coat.
Questions:
What Concrete Mix ratio should I use?
Do I need to attach a metal lathe, even though I am only applying 0.5 inches thick cement plaster coat?
Can I apply the 0.5 inches as 1 coat or do I need to do 2 coats?
Can I use standard concrete mix ratio, the same used in contructing structural concrete columns?
Can I use Oridinary Portland Cement or should I use Portland Lime Cement?
I have a 2 month old nearly full bag of Ordinary Portland Cement that was stored in dry conditions.
Can I apply the concrete mix straight onto the old brick and cement plaster coat surface?
Does the below Mix ratio work fine?
I'll try and upload a picture of the wall section later, right now my isp is not being aggreable.
Thanks,
