abstract = {For more than 10 years, masonry units made of ACC turned out to be one of the most popular materials used in the construction of residential buildings in Poland and other European countries. The recommended technology for erecting such structures requires using thin bed joints and non-filled head joints. Unfortunately, masonry buildings erected using this technique are prone to damage and cracks. One of the methods to guarantee improvement of cracking resistance of this type of structure is using a special prefabricated reinforcement to be placed in bed joints. The main objective of the investigation presented here was to analyse the behaviour of unreinforced and reinforced, with prefabricated truss-type called MURFOR®, masonry walletts. All specimens were subjected to diagonal compression. Three groups of specimens were tested, each using a different mortar coating Testing was especially focused on the main technological problem of the proper adhesion between mortar and the reinforcement surface.},
