'''Rubble''' is broken stone, of irregular size, shape and [[texture]]. Rubble naturally found in the [[soil]] is known also as '''brash''' (compare [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cornbrash cornbrash]). Where present, it becomes more noticeable when the [[land]] is [[plough]]ed or worked.

Rubble-work" is a name applied to several types of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masonry masonry]. One kind, where the stones are loosely thrown together in a wall between boards and grouted with [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mortar_(masonry) mortar] almost like concrete, is called in Italian "muraglia di getto" and in French "bocage". In Pakistan, walls made of rubble and concrete, cast in a formwork, are called 'situ', which probably derives from [[Sanskrit]] (similar to the Latin 'in situ' meaning 'made on the spot').

[[Work]] executed with more or less large stones put [[together]] without any attempt at courses is called rubble walling. Where similar work is laid in courses, it is known as coursed rubble. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dry-stone_wall Dry-stone walling] is somewhat similar work done without the use of mortar. It is bound together by the fit of the stones and the regular placement of stones which extend through the thickness of the wall. A rubble wall built with mortar will be stronger if assembled in this way.
