Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

This volume deals with the practical design of masonry structures. Topics covered in the book include brick column construction for commercial buildings, the use of pre-stressed concrete lintels in composite lintel construction and the compressive strength of masonry walls built laid flat.

Includes bibliographical references.
