Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

This textbook provides a comprehensive source of information on practical masonry design, introduces the nature and inherent characteristics of masonry given in relation to the requirements of BS 5628 and introduces the use of Eurocode EC6 in structural masonry design. The book's content ranges from an introduction to masonry as a material to the design of realistic structures.

This user-friendly text is an indispensable resource both for undergraduates in all years of civil engineering and structural engineering, in construction and architecture, and for practising engineers looking to refresh their knowledge.

Bibliography: (pages 261-265) and index.
