In the article there have been analyzed the results of experimental testing of strength of brick cellular-concrete piers (partitions), reinforced by the sheets from carbon-fibre fabric, against activity of static shearing load, simulating seismic load on masonry construction in case of earthquakes. Test technology has been provided. The experiment shows the options for reinforcing the brick piers (brick partitions) by the sheets from carbon-fibre fabric with one or two-sided position of reinforcement elements. There is a comparison with the results of tests of deviation (misalignment) of the unreinforced brick piers (brick partitions). There is a description of technology of fastening of the sheets to brickwork.
