Changing from Flemish Bond to English Bond when Rebuilding Wall
Posted: Fri Oct 09, 2015 5:53 pm
I am removing a section of structural 215mm solid wall of 1930 house built in ******* area for a beam to sit on.
The structural engineer has asked to rebuild the end section of this wall in engineering bricks.
My issue is :
The bonding used to build this side wall of the house is flemish bond. It uses 75mm bricks.
Can i tooth in the wall with 63mm bricks and change the bond to english bond as it is stronger. Thanks for the help.
