A method of forming a structure comprising reinforced concrete filled masonry units 10. A hollow masonry unit 10a is laid in a first course. The hollow interior of the masonry unit is filled with reinforced concrete so that the concrete overflows and is spread out across the upper surface of the masonry unit to form a bed joint. A further masonry unit 10b may be laid upon the bed joint to form a second course. A header end of the masonry unit may be vertically slotted to allow the unit to be threaded transversely over pre-installed elongate reinforcements such as rebars 14, 16.
