Dear Sefians,

This is regarding design of BRICK PANEL WALLS against
lateral wind load ( as per NBC refer Appendix-A, clause 4.10.1) . NBC gives
permissible flexural stresses of brick masonry for bricks with
minimum crushing strength of 75Kg/cm2 . But in India there are many areas
where only POOR quality bricks are availble with crushing strength as low
as 35kg/cm2. For designing a panel wall in those areas how to find
permissible flexural stresss in that case. Or alternativley what is other
material whcih can be used in place of brick, cost effectivley.

Please help me to find out a solution for the same.
