Answer» The correct answer is (c) STRETCHER bond For explanation I WOULD say: The stretcher bond is useful for ONE brick partition walls as there are no headers in such walls. As this bond does not develop proper internal bond, it should not be USED for walls having thickness greater than that of one-brick wall.
