In the 36cm (14 inch) masonry wall, only about 20cm (8 inches) of adhesive was applied. This results in open joints of up to 12cm (5 inches) on the interior and exterior sides.

In the Ytong instructions, I always find that the adhesive must be applied over the entire surface, not just on 20 out of 36cm (8 out of 14 inches).

What disadvantages can be expected from this type of construction?

Is this a defect, and can it be corrected?

You're overthinking it. This will be plastered. This is completely normal.

What do you mean by "tüdeln"? I’m not following.

To ramble a bit means to talk in a somewhat confused or disorganized way.

Well, thank you very much for this very serious comment.

“That will be plastered anyway. This is completely normal.”

Does anyone else agree with this opinion?

What are you afraid of? That it won’t stick well enough? Or that there will be drafts? Bricklayers are simply not delicate.
