At our place, the joints between the precast concrete slabs were filled by the painter. I somehow cannot imagine that this is part of the shell construction; depending on the cleanliness of the precast slab and the finished surface, the joints have to be filled multiple times and, if necessary, the ceiling elements themselves must also be filled (there may be small holes in them that would still be visible despite painting).

It was the same with us, it was done by the painter. I would also feel somehow uneasy about it if it is done before the screed on the floor above is applied and cured. A considerable amount of weight is added then, which could cause cracks to form again in the filled areas.

With our Poroton bricks, after making EG / OG, there are various holes in the stones,

As said: a construction site is not a girls’ boarding school and porous bricks are not wedding porcelain. A significant advantage of the jumbo formats and the bonding as well as the mortar-free joints is the working speed. Sensitivity would slow down this effect. Zero defects is not the standard here either, we are not talking about visible masonry. People with professions unrelated to construction often have too romantic ideas of how nice their little house should look even unadorned. It will last a hundred years anyway. Bismarck is said to have once remarked that it is better if people do not know too exactly how laws and sausages are made. *dermetzgersproßgrinst*
