  4.7 Simplified calculation method for the design of
      walls subjected to uniform lateral load but no
      vertical loads
Annex A (Informative) Simplified calculation method for
                      unreinforced masonry walls of
                      buildings not greater than 3 storeys
Annex B (Normative) Simplified calculation method for
                      the design of internal walls not
                      subject to vertical loads and with
                      limited lateral load
Annex C (Informative) Simplified calculation method for
                      the design of walls subjected to
                      uniform lateral design load and
                      no vertical loads
Annex D (Normative) Simplified method of determining
                      the characteristic strength of
                      masonry

Gives simplified calculation methods to facilitate the design of the unreinforced masonry walls, subject to certain conditions of application.
