BASIC PRINCIPLES OF CONSTRUCTING WALLS
The four key features of successful brickwork are that it is constructed level, vertical (plumb), to gauge and in line. Bringing these four features together means adopting the fundamental principle that walling, even one short course of bricks, is constructed by first building the ends or corners of the wall plumb, level, and to gauge, and then filling in the brickwork in between, by ‘running-in’ (see Fig 123). The accuracy of the in-filled brickwork in terms of level, plumb and gauge can only be as accurate as the corners or ends of the wall. Any mistakes or inaccuracies in the corners or ends will be transferred to, and replicated in, the middle section of the wall when it is run-in in between.
Fig. 123 First, the ends or corners of the walling are built and then the brickwork is run-in in between.
