Design of Masonry Structures A 200 mm thick brick masonry wall made of modular bricks carries an axial load of 30 kN/m from wall above and an eccentric load of 20 kN/m from RCC floor acting at a distance of 47.5 mm from the centre line of the wall. The resultant eccentricity ratio is 0.09 0.095 0.105 0.1 0.09 0.095 0.105 0.1 ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
