Asalam o alaikum everyone
I have a question. I am in process of making the preliminary map of my house before going to an architect.
What is the standard measurement of wall (boundary, internal structural walls (rooms and bathrooms). With either bricks or blocks. And also what is recommended now a days (brick or blocks) ?
If its load bearing wall then min thickness of brick wall should be 9 "
for boundary brick wall thickness can be reduced to 4.5"
in case of frame structure its up to you u can economize by reducing partition wall thicknesses up 4.5 "
however hollow blocks are recommended in frame structure for partition walls which will be more effective against thermal heat
Thank you very much Mr Khan much appreciated
