Masonry wall construction

Masonry walls of various sorts are utilized in building construction. Masonry walls are the most enduring feature of any structure or building. It separates a structure from the outside world. In masonry construction, the common masonry materials used are building stone, brick, cast stone, glass block, and concrete block. Masonry construction is a type of construction that has the highest durability.

A big box retail store is built with CMU bearing walls around its perimeter. The store measures 450 ft across the front and back and 360 ft across the sides. The walls are 28 ft tall and are reinforced horizontally with truss bars in alternate courses and vertically with #4 bars 32 in. on-center. There is an 8” tall bond beam running around the full perimeter of the building at the roof level (24 ft) to support the roof framing. The openings in the CMU walls, and the associated lintels are as follows: Opening Location Quantity Size Lintel Lintel Rebar Door Front wall 2 8’-0” x 10’-0” 16” tall CMU 2, #4 Door Side wall 2 each side 8’-0” x 4’-0” 8” tall CMU 1, #4 Door Back wall 3 8’-0” x 9’-0” 16” tall CMU 2, #4 Window Side wall 2 4’-0” x 3’-0” 8” tall CMU 1, #4 Note: each lintel should be a multiple of 8” long and have 8” of bearing on each side of the opening.
