    This document summarizes the changes made in the 1905 revision of Code & Commentary IS:1905, which provides standards for masonry design and construction. Major changes included: - Modifying thickness ratios for different wind pressures based on stability requirements. - Updating masonry compressive strength values to correspond to revised brick crushing strength standards. - Modifying the formula for calculating area reduction factors. - Changing the angle of dispersion for concentrated loads from 45 to 30 degrees. - Expanding provisions for shape modification factors for non-brick masonry units and provisions on corbelling and shear stress values. The revision was intended to further modify provisions based on implementation experience and

    Code &Commentary IS:1905

    PROVISIONS COMMENTARY
    thickness ratios were indicated for different
    wind pressures, based upon requirements
    for stability;
    h) Basic compressive stresses for masonry
    members were modified so that strength of
    masonry units correspond to revised values
    of brick crushing strength specified in
    IS:1077-1986*;
    i) Formula for calculating area reduction
    factor was modified;
    j) Angle of dispersion of concentrated loads,
    from the direction of such loads was
    changed from 45 to 30 ;
    k) Provisions relating to shape modification
    factors for masonry units other than
    common bricks were amplified;
    l) Values of permissible shear stress was
    related to the actual compressive stresses
    in masonry due to dead loads;
    m) Provisions on ‘corbelling’ were amplified.

    *Specification for common burnt clay building


    bricks (Fourth Revision).

    0.4 –
    The present revision is intended to further
    modify certain provisions as a result of
    experience gained with the use of the second
    revision of the standard. The following major
    changes have been made in this revision.
    (i) The requirements of a masonry element for
    stability have been modified.
    (ii) In the design of a free standing wall,
    provision has been made for taking
    advantage of the tensile resistance in
    masonry under certain conditions.
    (iii)Provision regarding effective height of a
    masonry wall between openings has been
    modified.
    (iv)Method of working out effective height of a
    wall with a membrane type DPC has been
    modified,
    (v)Criteria for working out effective length of
    wall having openings have been modified.
    (vi)Some general guidelines have been given
    for dealing with concentrated loads for
    design of walls.
    (vii)Provisions regarding cutting and chases in
    walls have been amplified.
    (viii)The title has been changed for the sake of
    greater clarity.

    0.5 – C0.5 -
    The following major changes have been Unlike previous versions of this code, this new
    introduced in the present fourth revision : version addresses both unreinforced and
    (a) Permissible stresses in masonry reinforced masonry.
