unit. The thickness of course is equal to
thickness of stone or brick plus one mortar
joint.

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

Alternative courses of headers and stretchers
Each alternate header should be centrally
placed over a stretcher
Queen closer will be provided after quoin
header

Wall thickness = 2,4,6.. X half brick, both faces
of wall will have same appearance
38
CTEP

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.

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

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.

• 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.

The projection above 80 mm height are removed
by light hammering.

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

• 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.

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
