HOW TO MAKE YOUR INTERIOR COOLER BY ADOPTING BRICK MASONRY CALLED RAT TRAP BOND TECHNIQUE 

Rat trap bond is a masonry technique  in which bricks are placed in vertical position instead of conventional horizontal position and thus creating a cavity  within the wall. The wall offers better  thermal efficiency than conventional  english and flemish bonds without compromising strength of the wall.
