• Course : It is a horizontal layer of masonry

unit. The thickness of course is equal to

thickness of stone or brick plus one mortar

joint.

• Header : The shorter face of the brick or

stone.

• Stretcher : The longest face of the brick or

stone.4

1. Header Bond:

In this all bricks are laid as headers on the faces

of wall

Used when wall thickness = 1 brick size

Overlap = ½ width of brick

It is achieved by providing ¾ Bat in alternate

courses as quoins

Not suitable for load bearing walls

Used in curved walls and footing construction34

2. Stretcher Bond:

In this all bricks are laid as Stretchers on the

faces of wall

Used when wall thickness = ½ brick size

Used as cavity walls, partition walls, division

walls, chimney stacks, etc.,36

3. English Bond:

Alternative courses of headers and stretchers

Each alternate header should be centrally

placed over a stretcher

Queen closer will be provided after quoin

header

No continuous vertical joints

Wall thickness = 2,4,6.. X half brick, both faces

of wall will have same appearance

38

CTEP

- U

NIT

- II

EBE

Ti

Wall thickness = 1,3,5.. X half brick, same

course will have headers on one face and

stretcher on other face of wall

Hearting of thicker walls should have only

headers in them.

Most widely used bond.

Heavy load carrying capacity.

Uses of bats is avoided. 39

4. Double Flemish Bond:

Every course consist of header and stretcher alternately

Facing and backing of a course will have same appearance

Queen closer will be provided after quoin headers in

alternate course

Wall thickness = 1,3,5.. X half brick, ½ bats and ¾ bats are

used

Wall thickness = 2,4,6.. X half brick, no bats are used

Points to be considered in Brick Masonry

Brick should be Uniform in size

Bricks must be soaked in water before use

Uniform Lapping is must

Lap = ¼ Brick along Length of wall

Lap = ½ Brick along thickness of wall

Use of Bats must be reduced

Vertical joints must be in same prepend

65

CTEP

NIT

- II

EBE

Ti

As for as possible brick work should raised

uniformly throughout length

Height of masonry construction in a day is restricted

to 1.5 m

After brickwork it must be watered for 1 to 2 weeks

Single scaffolding must be used.

For scaffolding only headers have to be removed

Stretchers are used only in facing

Hearting must done only with headers66

RUBBLE MASONRY

• The stone masonry in which either undressed

or roughly dressed stones are laid is called

"Rubble masonry".

• In this masonry, the joints of mortar are not

of uniform thickness.

1. Uncoursed Random Rubble Masonry

• In uncoursed random rubble masonry, the courses are

not maintained regularly.

• Larger stones are used at corners and at jambs to

increase their strength.

• In this type of masonry, the stones used are of widely

different sizes.

• This is the roughest and cheapest form of stone masonry.

• This type of masonry is used for constructing walls of

low height in case of ordinary buildings 71

2. Coursed Random Rubble Masonry

• In coursed random rubble masonry, the masonry work is

carried out in courses such that the stones in a particular

course are of equal height.

• In this type of masonry, the work is roughly levelled up

to form courses, varying from 12 to 18 inch thick.

• In each course, headers of one course height are placed at

certain intervals.

• This type of masonry is used to construct residential

buildings, godowns, boundary walls, etc., 74

3. Uncoursed Square Rubble Masonry• In the uncoursed square rubble masonry, the different

sizes of stones having straight edges and sides are

arranged on face in several irregular patterns.

• In this type of masonry, stones having straight bed and

sides are used.

• In this type of squared rubble masonry, the stones are

roughly squared and built without continuous horizontal

courses .

• It is used for ordinary buildings in hilly areas, where a

good variety of stones are easily and cheaply available.

• In the coursed square rubble masonry, the work

is carried out in courses of varying depth.

• In this type of masonry stones having straight

bed and sides are used.

• The stones are roughly squared and laid in

courses to bond in with the larger quoin stones.

5. Regular Coursed Squared Rubble Masonry

• This type of masonry is built in courses of

varying height but the stones in any one course

are of the same depth.

• It is mostly used in public buildings, hospitals,

schools, markets, modern residential buildings

and in hilly areas, where a good quality of stone

is easily and cheaply available.

6. Polygonal Rubble Masonry

• In this type of rubble masonry, the stones are

hammer dressed.

• The stones used for face work are dressed in

an irregular polygonal shape.

• Thus the face joints are seen running in an

irregular fashion in all directions.85

7. Flint Rubble Masonry

• In this type of masonry, stone used are flints or cobbles.

• These are irregularly shaped nodules of silica.

• Thickness = 7.5 to 15 cm Length = 15 to 30 cm

• The stones are extremely hard.

• But they are brittle and therefore they break easily.

• Facing may be coursed or uncoursed or built to courses

• Increases strength by introducing lacing course88

8. Dry Rubble Masonry

• In this type of masonry, mortar is not used in the joints.

• This type of construction is the cheapest and requires

more skill in construction.

• It is an ordinary masonry and is recommended for

constructing walls of height not more than 18 ft.

• In case, the height is more, three adjacent courses are laid

in Squared rubble masonry, in mortar at 9 ft interval

• This may be used for non-load bearing walls such as

compound walls, retaining walls, pitching on bridge

approaches etc…

ASHLAR MASONRY• The stone masonry in which finely dressed stones are laid in

cement or lime mortar, is known as "Ashlar Masonry".

• In this masonry all the joints are regular, thin, and of uniform thickness.

• This type of masonry is costly in construction as involves heavy cost of dressing of stones.

• This masonry is used for heavy structures, arches, architectural buildings, high piers, abutments of bridges, etc.

1. ASHLAR FINE MASONRY

In this type of masonry stone blocks of same

height are used in each course.

Every stone is fine tooled on all sides.

Thickness of Mortar joint should not more

than 5 mm and is uniform through out.

This type of ashlar masonry is very costly.94

are finely chisel-dressed.

But the face is made rough by means of tools.

Thickness of joints does not exceed 6 mm.

This type of masonry is also known as Bastard

Ashlar Masonry.96

3. Rock or Quarry Faced Ashlar MasonryThere is no dressing on face of the stone it is left

as rocky.

The projection above 80 mm height are removed

by light hammering.

Blocks are in uniform size.

Height of block may 15 cm to 30 cm.

Thickness of joints may up to 10mm.98

provided as below.

But it is chamfered or bevelled at an angle of

45 degrees by means of chisel for a depth of

about 25mm.

Due to this a groove is formed with adjacent

blocks. 100

masonry.

• In this type of masonry, the face work is provided with

rough tooled or hammer dresses stones and backing of

the wall may be made in rubble masonry.

• The stones are all squared and properly dressed.

• Joints are not straight as ashlar masonry.

• Height of course may 15 cm to 30 cm. 102

6. Ashlar Facing Masonry

Ashlar is the superior but expensive type of stone masonry

thus in order to reduce the cost a wall is commonly

constructed with a facing of ashlar and backing of rubble or

brick masonry.

Such walls are also called compound or composite masonry

walls.

If the backing is of rubble masonry it is called rubble

ashlar, if the backing is of brick masonry then it is termed

as brick ashlar. 104
