Testing. Compressive strength of clay brick walls

Stang, A.H. / Parsons, D.E. / McBurney, J.W.

Results are given of compressive tests of 168 brick walls, each 6 ft. long and about 9 ft. high and of 129 wallettes, about 18 in. long and 34 in. high; four kinds of brick, 3 mortar mixtures, 2 grades of workmanship, different curing conditions and 10 different types of masonry (3 solid and 7 hollow) were variables; construction data are given which show relative saving in materials and time for hollow types; results of wallette tests confirm, in general, conclusions deduced from wall tests. (see also Eng. News-Rec., vol. 103, no. 21, Nov. 21, 1929, p. 808)
