Summary:Generally, brickwork is masonry created using bricks and mortar. Rows of bricks called courses are often put on top of one another to form a structure such as a brick wall. A building's walls are one of its most significant structural features. A wall serves several functions in the performance of a building, and these functions must be properly understood in required to design an appropriate and comfortable structure that also provides privacy and weather protection. Therefore, this report will discuss about brickwork installation for load-bearing wall. This report was conducted on one of a large-scale residential landed house area named Taman Nuri which is located at Durian Tunggal district in Melaka. The main objective of this report is to determine the method of wall bricklaying process of load-bearing wall. It will concentrate on a method use in wall construction and the way how it carried out. In addition, this report will emphasis on the overall bricklaying wall construction procedure. It also analyses the materials and tools needed in bricklaying wall construction techniques, as well as the problem and solution in wall building that would meet the load bearing wall specifications. At the end of this study, we can conclude that there are several methods that can be used in brickwork for load-bearing walls by using some mandatory materials such as mis of mortar and special tools used by the bricklayer while the process wall construction going on.
