Although this type of construction is used quite widely, there is not much research on its behavior under static load. In the Laboratory of the Faculty of Civil Engineering at Silesian University of Technology, masonry walls made of autoclaved aerated concrete were tested under static load. The main purpose of the research was determine the influence of confining masonry walls by reinforced concrete columns and beam on the load-bearing capacity, deformability and scratch resistance of masonry walls subjected to compression in their plane. Indirectly, the research also allowed for observations of the mechanism of scratches and destruction of sample elements. Keywords: autoclaved aerated concrete; confined masonry; compressed walls.
