  History of masonry, Masonry elements, Types of masonry construction, Analysis and design methods. Materials: masonry units, mortar, grout, reinforcement, masonry assemblages, compression, flexural, shear in-plane and tensile strength. Reinforced beams and lintels: flexural behavior and design, shear design, load distribution on lintel beams. Flexural walls: load resisting mechanisms, flexural behavior, analysis and design of reinforced flexural walls. Load bearing walls under axial load and out-of-plane bending. Overview of the effects of bending on the capacity of walls (effect of wall height, interaction between axial loads and bending). Linear elastic analysis of unreinforced and reinforced masonry sections (effects of slenderness, moment magnification). Special provisions for slender reinforced walls.
