Design of Free-Standing Clay Brick Walls Before a masonry fence can be built, the building regulation authorities require that a permit be obtained. Many authorities require that fences be designed to resist the wind loads given in the Australian Standard Structural Design Actions Part 2 (AS 1170.2). The result is that traditional methods of construction and design, in which the mass of the brickwork has to be sufficient to provide the necessary stability, are often uneconomical or impracticable.
