  • Abstract:
    The variations in mortar joint thickness and in head joint alignment of 30 mortar joints in brick masonry walls were measured in each of 24 buildings. Wall age ranged from 1 to 92 years. The median coefficient of variation in joint thickness was 18.8% for head joints and 13.6% for bed joints. The median deviation from vertical alignment of head joints was 0.19 in. (5 mm) over a 6-ft (1.83-m) wall height. Criteria for judging quality of craftsmanship with regard to these variables is established.
