Masonry construction is the most widely adopted traditional fire-resistant building structure in the world. The greatest characteristic of masonry is its exceptional durability and longevity, which cannot be achieved by other construction methods. Historic buildings that have stood for hundreds of years can be found throughout the world. Within this context, reinforced concrete masonry construction (RM Construction) is an innovative hybrid structure that combines the essential technologies of masonry with reinforced concrete, and can be applied to various purposes. It ensures earthquake resistance equivalent to reinforced concrete construction and is used in load-bearing walls with durable wall structures, walls, foundations, and for various applications such as seismic wall additions and retaining walls for existing buildings. Additionally, since exterior wall work is not required, construction up to the property boundary is possible. This technology achieves homes that are excellent not only in earthquake and heat resistance, but also in air tightness, thermal insulation, sound insulation, and long service life, while offering economic efficiency and design durability.
