Detached double garage - wall thickness

[Eddman]

Hi everyone,

To build a detached double garage - 5m X 6m long - not sure which way to run the ridge at the moment, what wall construction would you use?

half brick thick with piers? half brick with inner block leaf and wall ties? double brick wall also with wall ties?

your ideas/experiences will be much appreciated...

You need an architect

So, is 2 side-by-side 100mm brick leafs ok as i cannot find 190mm thick bricks? Or would you suggest a 215mm thick wall with a stretcher bond every three or four courses?

I/2 brick with piers centrally and at any opening for a single storey, regardless of how big it is.
