Abstract

Lime mortar is as old as human civilization.  But Lime is replaced with Cement as binding material which  is widely utilized today. But need for reduction in  environmental pollution is turning the tide against cement.  Lime with admixtures are tried in various researches  nowadays. In this paper lime mortar of 1:3 ratio is with  admixtures of Agricultural complex (NPKS) urea and Super  phosphate in various percentages such as 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 is  studied. Commercial lime available in market was used. Red  soil was used as fine aggregate. The Raw materials are tested  for physical and chemical properties. Lime mortar cubes  were cured in ambient temperature with moisture. The lime  mortar cubes were tested for strength, water absorption and  weight. Maximum strength was obtained in urea 4% and 5%.
