Unfortunately, the analysis of the current situation shows that the culture of consumption of face bricks in Russia remains at a low level, which is due to the lack of proper knowledge and insufficient number of qualified master masons.

Masonry bricks were widely used in construction of the walls in most of Chinese historical buildings. The low strength of lime–clay mortar used in existing historical brick masonry walls has usually led to poor performance such as cracking and collapse during earthquakes. As the composition of modified oyster shell ash mortar (MOSA mortar) with higher strength is similar to that of lime–clay mortar, it can be used to partially replace original lime–clay mortar for historical brick masonry buildings in order to improve their seismic performance.

Extensive durability problems such as weathering and degradation are found in historic Scandinavian brick masonry buildings, especially from the neo-Gothic period.

Abstract:
Masonry is a composite material largely used in construction. It exhibits several advantages, including significant compressive strength, thermal inertia, and aesthetic beauty. A disadvantage of masonry is mainly related to the inadequate shear strength due to the poor capacity and ductility of the adopted mortar. This aspect is crucial in seismic areas. In this paper, the behavior of polyurethane foams, used as adhesives for the construction of thin joints brick masonry walls, has been investigated. First, the characterization of components was carried out, followed by laboratory uniaxial tes

Abstract:
Brick masonry is widely used for building construction throughout the world. However, unreinforced brick masonry buildings performed poorly in the 2005 Kashmir earthquake, in Pakistan, resulting in a decline in the use of brick masonry. In order to investigate and quantify the performance of brick masonry against the seismic forces by confining it through typical stiffer, line elements (column and beams), a full-scaled room model of an area 3048 × 3658 mm (10 × 12 ft) and height of 3353 mm (11 ft) was constructed using confined brick masonry. The model was tested under quasistatic loading syst

Masonry is one of the most common building envelope systems in the world, providing an excellent water protection solution against rain. Water transport in masonry walls composed of bricks and mortar joints can be strongly affected by the nature of the interface between brick and mortar. In this study, two-dimensional water uptake experiments and numerical simulations are performed to study the effect of interface resistance on moisture transport in masonry samples with horizontal and vertical interfaces.

One alternative to replacing traditional red brick is lightweight brick, which is commonly used as a wall construction material. One of its main advantages is its light weight, which can help reduce overall construction costs. The reduced weight of the wall material allows for a decrease in the volume of structural elements needed. However, with advancements in material technology, there is a need to further improve the efficiency of lightweight bricks in terms of material usage and the quality of the masonry, particularly its shear strength.

Abstract: The strength of masonry depends upon the strength of masonry units, mortar and the bond between them. The strength of the component materials is defined by standardized tests, which don’t necessarily reflect the state of stress in the component material in brickwork, but serve as index values in the selection of design stresses. This is only an empirical approach, which provides an acceptable basis for the structural design of brickwork. The approach is not altogether satisfactory as it gives little insight into the behavior of the brick mortar composite Research work has shown that

Though fly ash bricks are available from last few years, but the experimental data regarding behaviour of masonry made with such bricks are limited. In the realm of structural design, the compressive strength of masonry stands as a crucial property, while the modulus of elasticity under uniaxial compression assumes equal importance, particularly when addressing concerns related to the deformation of masonry structures.

Experimental results revealed cohesive failure within the masonry substrate as the dominant failure mode. Mortar joints reduced bond strength by 12.1–24.6% and disrupted stress distribution, leading to discontinuous load–displacement curves and multiple strain peaks in CFR
