Rat trap bond
 The rat trap bond (RTB) was first
introduced by eminent architect
Laurie Baker in India and supported
by HUDCO.

 In the RTB bricks are placed on edge


in 1:6 cement mortar as shown in the
picture.
 With this technique there is reduction
in cost of the wall by 25% as with
conventional English bond (9’’thk
wall) 350 bricks are required per cu.
m whereas in Rat-trap bond only 280
bricks are required and also the
reduced number of joints reduces the
mortar consumption.
 No plastering of the outside face is
required and the wall usually is quite
aesthetically pleasing and the air gaps
created within the wall help make the
house thermally comfortable.

Rat trap bond
 In summer the temperature
inside the house is usually
atleast 5 degrees lower that the
outside ambient temperature
and vice versa in winter.
 Thus the main advantages of
using Rat trap bond are:
 Reduction in cost of the wall by
25%.
 The reduction in number of
joints, reduces mortar. · 25%
less dead weight, 18% savings
in bricks and 54% savings in
cement mortar
 Thermally comfortable &
Aesthetically pleasing.
