Why Sea Sand not used for Construction

Sea sand should not be used for the following reasons:

  • It contains salt and hence structure will remain damp. The mortar is affected by efflorescence and blisters appear.
  • It contains shells and other organic matter, which decompose after some time, reducing the life of the mortar.
