Lesson Objectives
At the end of this lesson students will be able to
differentiate between the different types of wall
materials, as well as determine which wall
material is best used for a particular job or task.
Question
What is a Wall Material?
Wall Material Definition
Wall materials are building materials and items used for wall
construction. The most important requirements of wall
materials are determined by the load-bearing and partitioning
functions of the walls. An important characteristic of an
individual wall material is the relative amount of labor
required to erect walls made of that particular material.

Questions
1.What are the different types of wall material?
2.What are other wall materials that were not listed ?
Description and Purpose
BricksA brick is building material used to make walls, pavements and
other elements in masonry construction. Traditionally, the term
brick referred to a unit composed of clay, but it is now used to
denote any rectangular units laid in mortar. A brick can be
composed of clay, sand, and lime, or concrete materials.
Description and Purpose
Building BlocksBlock, when built in tandem with concrete columns and tie beams and
reinforced with rebar, is a very common building material for the load-
bearing walls of buildings, in what is termed concrete block structure
(CBS) construction. Concrete blocks are made from cast concrete and
are usually made of cement, sand and fine gravel. Clay blocks are made
using the same cast process but are made of clay, sand and cement.
Description and Purpose
StoneStone walls are a kind of masonry construction that has been used for
thousands of years. Stone walls are usually made of materials varying
from limestone and flint to granite and sandstone. However, the quality
of building stone varies greatly, both in its endurance to weathering,
resistance to water penetration and in its ability to be worked into
regular shapes before construction.
Description and Purpose
ConcreteConcrete walls are classified into two types plain concrete wall
and reinforced concrete wall. Reinforced concrete wall is
designed as a compression member. Reinforced concrete wall is
used in case where tie beam is not provided and load from the
decking is heavy or when the masonry wall thickness is restricted.
Description and Purpose
TimberTimber walls are most popular in the United States for home
construction. House framework is entirely constructed from timber,
interior and exterior walls are framed from timber and they are either
covered with gypsum or oriented strand board sheets. The intricate
design of the walls aid in their durability as well as their load bearing
capacity.
