The paper presents the results of studies in strength, deformability and crack resistance of masonry from economy stones of the new generation made of porous ceramics. The low K-value of this masonry allows erecting enclosing structures without efficient heat insulation with high resistance to heat transfer meeting the requirements of the current regulatory documents. The analysis of crack resistance of the masonry using the above stones has shown that with high-strength mortars (M125 and higher) the ratio of the load at first crack to fracture load diminishes to the values of 0.51-0.58. This factor allows recommending large-sized stones from porous ceramics in erection of energy-efficient buildings including those in seismic areas.
