Terra Cotta Walls Tested by Government Experiments
Government officials conducted experiments on terra cotta wall behavior under varying loading. Test walls measured four and a half feet by seven and a half feet, built with different construction types and void fillings. Load applied behind backing walls, on terra cotta face, or uniformly over terra cotta.
Tests On Terra Cotta Facing And Backing Walls
Vertical deformations of terra cotta facing and backing walls were measured under varying loads. The separation between facing and backing wall was recorded during loading. Wide disparities exist in building laws across the country regarding terra cotta use. Results will aid the building trades and be published for interested readers.
