Dry Stacked Masonry-Present Scenario - 2

Greater speed of construction and better dimensional stability has generated lot of research interest in dry-stacked masonry. Researchers have also reported better structural response of dry- stacked masonry under lateral loads. In this paper we have discussed about some basic tests performed on self made interlocking masonry wall system. In present work, an attempt has been made to make people aware about the newly developed interlocking dry stacked masonry system and its advantages as compare to conventional block masonry.
