Answer»

Right choice is (C) Mass of the wall

Easy explanation: When vertical loads act on a wall, then the strength of the LOAD intensity depends on the slenderness ratio. The slenderness ratio further depends on the length, HEIGHT and THICKNESS of the wall. It also depends upon the support CONDITIONS.
