Answer»

Correct option is (b) CROSS-junction

The explanation is: In Cross-junction or an Intersection, the alternate courses of the cross wall i.e. the courses of one of the walls simply butt against the courses of the other wall. Also, the alternate courses which are not continuous are provided with tie bricks in the FORM of KEY HEADERS to create the necessary BOND and lap.
