Compressive strength of mortar increases with an increase in cement content and decreases with an increase lime, sand, water or air content. Retempering is associated with a decrease in mortar compressive strength. The amount of the reduction increases with water addition and time between mixing and retempering.

Test mortar consists of cement, additives (optional), admixtures (optional), sand and water. The composition of mortar can be varied, but in the normal case a weight ratio of 1.5 between sand and cement (+ additives) is used. The ratio of 1.5 corresponds to a concrete mix having a relatively high cement content.
