Masonry sand, also known as fine sand or mortar sand, is a type of sand that is finely crushed and filtered to remove larger particles, making it ideal for use in construction and landscaping. This sand is commonly used in the preparation of mortar for bricklaying, stonework, and block construction, where a smooth, consistent texture is required. In landscaping, masonry sand is often used as a bedding layer for pavers, flagstones, and other flat surfaces, providing a stable, even base that helps prevent shifting and settling over time. It is also used in the creation of sandboxes, playgrounds, and as a filler between pavers to lock them in place. Masonry sand's fine texture makes it easy to work with and compact, ensuring a solid foundation for various construction and landscaping projects. Additionally, it can be used to improve soil drainage in garden beds and other planting areas. While masonry sand is not typically used for decorative purposes, its functional properties make it an essential material in both residential and commercial landscaping and construction applications.
