Abstract1: If freestanding walls are not well built, they can fail early in their life. And if local conditions change a well established, soundly built wall can be damaged or even collapse. Before starting on any repair, whether a minor patching up or a major rebuilding, it is important to find out what caused the problem. This Guide aims to help in assessing damage in freestanding masonry walls, establishing the cause, and carrying out effective repairs.
