Design of Masonry Structures Consider the following statements: The use of relatively weak mortar 1. Will accommodate movements due to loads and, cracking if any, and will be distributed as thin hair cracks which are less noticeable or harmful. 2. Will result in reduction of stresses due to differential expansion of masonry units. Neither 1 nor 2 is correct Both 1 and 2 are correct 2 alone is correct 1 alone is correct Neither 1 nor 2 is correct Both 1 and 2 are correct 2 alone is correct 1 alone is correct ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
