Solution

The correct option is B
If the bricks in two consecutive rows have their ends falling in one line, then the wall will be weak.
In option B, the ends are not falling in the same line. Instead, it is forming a T-junction, and therefore the wall will have the strongest joint.

Question 11
A mason constructs a wall of dimensions 270 cm×300 cm× with the bricks each of size $22.5 c m \times 11.25 c m \times 8.75 c m$ and it is assumed that $\frac{1}{8}$ space is covered by the mortar. Then, the number of bricks used to construct the wall is Thinking process If we divide the volume of the wall except the volume of mortar are used on wall by the volume of one brick, then we get the required number of bricks used to construct the wall.
