9 applies [see Sentence 1.3.3.3.(1) of Division A for application of
Part 9], minimum width of units for above-ground, unreinforced and nominally
reinforced masonry cavity walls, loadbearing masonry cavity walls of buildings of
more than one storey in regions where the spectral
response acceleration Sa(0.2) is greater than 0.55 that are reinforced
in accordance with Sentence 9.20.1.2.(1), and loadbearing masonry cavity walls of 3-storey buildings in regions where the spectral response acceleration
Sa(0.2) is greater than 0.35 and less than or equal to 0.55 that
are reinforced in accordance with Sentence 9.20.1.2.(2):
Exceptions:
except as stated in Sentence 9.20.1.1.(2), which applies to buildings other than described above, or where the masonry

or cracking, which could lead to the excessive deformation, displacement or
failure of required environmental separation elements.
This is to limit the probability of:
