    Masonry
    • masonry, the art and craft of building and fabricating in
    stone, clay, brick, or concrete block.
    • Stone- rip-rap
    • adobe, a heavy clay soil used to make sun-dried bricks.
    Adobe is a mixture of clay, sand, and silt with good plastic
    qualities that will dry to a hard uniform mass.
    • CHB/CMU-Concrete Hollow Block/CMU-Concrete Masonry Unit
    CHB/CMU
    • Standard hollow block has usually three void cells and two half
    cells at both ends having a total of four (3” and 4” CHB’s)
    • Consists of proportions of sand and cement and at times pea-sized
    (choker) gravel mixed with water
    • Having a nominal dimension of 0.4m long by 0.2 m high with
    varying thickness:
    0.1 m(4”) , 0.15 m(6”) , and 0.2m (8”)
    • Load bearing are those whose thickness ranges 15 to 20 cm. With
    a strength of 6.89 Mpa (1,000 psi) or higher.
    • Non-Load bearing are usually 10 cm thick with strength of 500 –
    800 psi (3.4 -5.5 Mpa).
    Masonry Wall
    • Reinforced Concrete for wall footing
    • Reinforcing steel bars and tie wires
    • Mortar ( cement and sand ) for block laying
    • CHB
    • Grout (cement, sand and gravel) for the hollow core or cell.
    • There are 12.5 pieces of CHB for every square meter area
    CHB Dimensions
    • Dimensions must be stated in proper order width, height and
    length (WHL)
    • Standard dimensions are:
