Abstract
The dry brick masonry method has been limited to a simple wall plan that is the straight line and rectangular, etc. In this study, the layout logic of a curved wall and a bay window wall for the dry brick masonry method was examined. And the construction experiment of a special formed wall was done, and the feasibility of a curved wall and a bay window wall was examined. The conclusions are as follows. The layout logic of a curved wall is that the bolt hole is allocated on the circular arc by 120mm pitch, the starting point and the terminal are on the grid center, circular arc length becomes the multiple of 120, and the number of bolt holes at intervals becomes an even number. It was able to be confirmed that a curved wall and a bay window wall of the dry brick masonry method were good at the masonry by the construction experiment.
