Group-c
Stone masonry is made of stone units bonded together with 
mortar. 
Classification of stone masonry 
Stone masonry 
Rubble masonry 
1. Randam rubble masonry 
- Coursed - uncoursed 
2. Square rubble masonry 
- Coursed - uncoursed 
3. Polygonal rubble masonry 
4. Flint rubble masonry 
5. Dry rubble masonry 
Ashlar masonry 
1. Ashlar fine masonry 
2. Ashlar rough tooled 
3. Rock (or) quarry faced 
4. Ashlar chamfered 
5. Ashlar block in course
Random rubble masonry 
 Coursed 
 In this type of masonry, the stones used are of 
widely different sizes. This is the roughest and 
cheapest form of stone masonry. 
 In coursed random rubble masonry, the 
masonry work is carried out in courses such 
that the stones in a particular course are of 
equal height. 
 Uncoursed 
In this type of masonry, the stones used are 
of widely different sizes. This is the roughest 
and cheapest form of stone masonry. 
In uncoursed random rubble masonry, the 
courses are not maintained regularly. The 
larger stones are laid first and the spaces 
between them are then filled up by means of 
spalls or sneaks.
Square rubble masonry 
 Coursed 
In this type of masonry stones having 
straight bed and sides are used. The stones 
are usually squared and brought to hammer 
dressed or straight cut finish. 
In the coursed square rubble masonry, the 
work is carried out in courses of varying 
depth. 
 Uncoursed 
In this type of masonry stones having 
straight bed and sides are used. The stones 
are usually squared and brought to hammer 
dressed or straight cut finish. 
In the uncoursed square rubble masonry, the 
different sizes of stones having straight 
edges and sides are arranged on face in 
several irregular patterns.
Polygonal rubble masonry 
In this type of rubble masonry, the stones 
are hammer dressed. The stones used for 
face work are dressed in an irregular 
polygonal shape. Thus the face joints are 
seen running in an irregular fashion in all 
directions. 
Flint rubble masonry 
In this type of masonry, stone used are flints 
or cobbles. These are irregularly shaped 
nodules of silica. The stones are extremely 
hard. But they are brittle and therefore they 
break easily. 
Dry rubble masonry 
In this type of masonry, mortar is not used 
in the joints. This type of construction is the 
cheapest and requires more skill in 
construction. This may be used for non-load 
bearing walls such as compound walls, etc…
ASHLAR MASONRY 
1. ASHLAR FINE MASONRY 
In this type ashlar masonry, each stone is cut 
to uniform size and shape with all sides 
rectangular, so that the stone gives perfectly 
horizontal and vertical joints with adjoining 
stone. This type of ashlar masonry is very 
costly. 
Ashlar rough tooled masonry 
In this type of ashlar masonry, the beds and 
sides are finely chisel-dressed. But the face is 
made rough by means of tools. A strip, about 
25mm wide and made by means of chisel is 
provided around the perimeter of the rough 
dressed face of each stone. 
Ashlar rock or quarry faced masonry 
In this type of ashlar masonry, a strip about 
25mm wide and made by means of chisel is 
provided around the perimeter of every 
stone as in case of rough-tooled ashlor 
masondry. But the remaining portion of the 
face is left in the same form as received from 
quarry.
Ashlar chamfered masonry 
In this type of ashlar masonry, the strip is provided as 
below. But it is chamfered or beveled at an angle of 45 
degrees by means of chisel for a depth of about 25mm. 
Ashlar back in course masonry 
This is combination of rubble masonry and ashlar 
masonry. In this type of masondry, the face work is 
provided with rough tooled or hammer dresses stones and 
backing of the wall may be made in rubble masonry.
Brick Masonry 
Brick masonry is the process of constructing a building from individual bricks laid in a 
specific pattern and bound together, usually by mortar. 
Bonds in Brick Masonry
Brick Laying 
Striking And Raking Of Joints
Lead And Lift 
Most joint finishes, that are tooled with 
a jointer or trowel, are carried out at the 
end of laying every course or two. The 
exception is the raked joint that may be 
left for a couple of hours. 
At the end of each day all work should be 
cleaned down with a stiff brush. A piece 
of hessian bag or other material may be 
used to remove any marks from the wall 
first. 
Precautions In Brick Masonry
Bricks should be soaked in water for adequate period so that the 
water penetrates to its full thickness. Normally 6 to 8 hours of 
wetting is sufficient. 
• A systematic bond must be maintained throughout the brickwork. 
Vertical joints 
shouldn't be continuous but staggered. 
• The joint thickness shouldn't exceed 1cm. It should be thoroughly 
filled with the cement mortar 1:4 to 1:6 (Cement: Sand by volume) 
• All bricks should be placed on their bed with frogs on 
top(depression on top of the brick for providing bond with mortar). 
• Thread, plumb bob and spirit level should be used for alignment, 
verticality and horizontality of construction. 
• Joints should be raked and properly finished with trowel or float, 
to provide good bond. 
• A maximum of one meter wall height should be 
constructed in a day. 
• Brickwork should be properly cured for at least 10 days
Tools And Plants Used In Brick Masonry 
You've heard it said many times, having the right tools makes any 
job easier. Before you start, there are some basic tools and 
equipment you'll need. These tools may change depending on the 
type of job, but generally, the following tools are required when 
building a masonry wall.
Comparison Between Brick And Stone Masonry
Hollow concrete block Masonry 
Concrete masonry blocks have been in existence for centuries. 
Revolutionary changes in manufacturing technology and material 
sciences have made multi sized, shaped, colors and textured blocks 
a reality. They are used as both structural and non-structural 
components and have been the preferred building blocks in the w 
eastern world. They are fast replacing traditional bricks and other 
masonry products in India 
too.
Composite 
Composite masonry is the one which is 
constructed out of building units or of 
different types of building materials
What is ‘DOOR’? 
Door, which is a 
frame-work of 
timber, glass, 
steel 
combination of 
these material, a 
connecting link 
between various 
internal parts in 
a building unit.
PANELLED 
DOOR 
A door constructed with panels, usually shaped 
topattern, installed between 
the stiles and rails that form the outside frame of 
the door.
TYPES OF DOORS 
GLAZED DOOR-Glazed door , which gives very 
good elevational effects, uses in posh residential 
building. 
BATTENED DOOR- Battened door, which is a 
simplest type of door shutter, is economical than 
other doors as workmanship involved in it is very 
small. Battens are 100 - 150mm wide & 20 - 30mm 
thick. 
COLLAPSIBLE DOOR-Collapsible door, which 
may be fabricated in form single/two shutters, 
consists of vertical mild steel channels 16 - 20mm 
wide, a vertical gape 12 – 20mm. 
ROLLING STEEL SHUTTER-Rolling steel 
shutter , which is capable of being rolled up & 
causes no obstruction when open, is usually 
provided for garages, shops, godowns etc. 
P.V.C. DOOR- P.V.C door uses bathroom, shops 
etc. 
REVOLVING DOOR-Revolving door, which is 
incoming & out going door, is provided in big 
hostels, banks etc.
 A louver is a window blind or shutter with 
horizontal slats that are angled to admit 
light and air, but to keep out rain, direct 
sunshine, and noise. The angle of the slats 
may be adjustable, usually in blinds and 
windows, or fixed.[1] Modern louvers are 
often made of aluminium, metal, wood, or 
glass. They may be opened and closed with a 
metal lever, pulleys, or through motorized 
operators. 
 Glazing can be mounted on the surface of 
a window sash or door stile, usually made 
of wood, aluminium or PVC. The glass is 
fixed into a rabbet (rebate) in the frame in a 
number of ways including triangular glazing 
points, putty, etc.. 
 Glazing is commonly used in low 
temperature solar thermal collectors 
because it helps retain the collected heat.
 Sliding windows are becoming increasingly 
popular because they are easy to operate and 
do not occupy space either on the interior or 
on the exterior. There are several series 
ranging from two-track to four-track. They 
are capable to being fabricated in heights 
ranging from a standard 4' to as high as 
10'.The windows have very sophisticated 
facilities such as interlocking sections, 
grooves for weather strip, provisions for 
fixing. 
 The process of removing used air by fresh air 
from buildings and spaces is called 
ventilation. This is done by Natural or 
Artificial methods.
Vertical communication is also called as two-way 
communication because in this communication, the management can 
give directives and send information downward and in addition receive 
periodic information from subordinates about the effectiveness of their 
directives and the progress of the organization. 
Stair case Elevator Ramp
Requirement Of Good Staircase
 1.LOCATION:--It should be so located that sufficient light and ventilation is ensured in the 
stairway. If possible should be located centrally so as to be easily accessible from the different 
corner of the building. 
 2. WIDTH OF A STAIR:--Width of the stair varies with the situation and the purpose for 
which it is provided. In public building where there is a regular traffic of people using the stair 
way ,it's width should be sufficient while in a residential building it may be just the 
minimum. The usually adopted average value of the stair width for public and residential 
building is 1.8m and 80 cm respectively. 
 3.LENGTH OF FLIGHT:-- For the comfortable ascent of stair way the number of step in the 
flight should be restricted to a maximum of 12 and minimum of 3. 
 4.PITCH OF STAIR :--The pitch of long stair should be made flatter by introducing landings 
to make the ascent less tiresome and less dangerous. In general, the slope of stair never exceed 
40degree and should not be flatter than 25degree. 
 5.HEAD ROOM:--The head room or the clear distance between the tread and the soffit of the 
flight immediately above it should not be less than 2.14m 
 6.MATERIAL:--The stair should preferably be constructed of materials which possess fire 
resisting qualities. 
 7.BALUSTRADE:--The open well stairs should be provided with balustrade so as to minimize 
the danger of accidents. 
 8.LANDING:--The width of the landing should not be less than the width of stair. 
 9.WINDERS:--The introduction of winders in stair should be avoided as far as possible. They 
are liable to be dangerous and involve extra expense in the construction. They are difficult to 
carpet and are especially unsuitable for public buildings, However where the winders cannot 
be dispensed with, they should preferably be provided near the lower end of the flight. 
 10.STEP PROPORTIONS:-- The rise and tread of every step in a stair should be uniform 
dimensions throughout. The ratio of the going and the rise ,of the step should be so 
proportioned as to ensure a comfortable access to the stair way.

SCAFOLTING AND SHOARING 
TYPE - 
A number of patented shoring systems have been developed with adjustable legs which 
eliminate cutting, close fitting, and wedging. Figure 3 shows schematic diagram of one such 
device. 
Figure 1 - Shoring system with adjustable legs 
Figure 1 shows a picture where this device is being utilized. 
Figure 2 - Application of shoring system with adjustable legs 
Scaffold-Type Shoring 
Tubular steel form scaffolding was first designed to support loads imposed by the workers 
getting to the work area. Since the system of jacks in the tubular steel scaffolding makes it 
easy to adjust and level elevations, it is often used as a support for formwork. Since it is a 
modular assembly, it makes it an attractive option for rapid utilization for formwork support.
Shoring and underpinning 
1.The stability of a structure is endangered due to removal of a defective portion of the structure. 
2.The stability of a structure is endangered due to unequal settlement during construction itself or in long 
run. 
3.Certain alterations are to be done in present structure itself. Eg: remodeling of walls, changing position of 
windows,etc. 
• Alterations are carried out in adjacent building for remodeling, strengthening of foundation, etc 
Frame Shoring Safety Rule 
• POST THESE SHORING SAFETY RULES - in a conspicuous place and be sure that all persons who erect, 
dismantle or use shoring frame are aware of them. 
•FOLLOW ALL STATE, LOCAL AND FEDERAL CODES, ORDINANCES AND REGULATIONS - pertaining to shoring 
•A SHORING LAYOUT - shall be available on the jobsite at all time. 
•INSPECT ERECTED SHORING AND FORMING – a) immediately prior to pour, b) During pour, c) After pour 
until concrete is set. 
•CONSULT YOUR SHORING EQUIPMENT SUPPLIER WHEN IN DOUBT - shoring is his business .
