Make structural brick walls with the f'c of the brick in revit 2016

I've tried to make the walls to work as a structural Wall with bricks but they dont seem to have and F'c unlike the concrete that in mechanical properties it has his f'c, (around 28Mpa i think)

 

Another small question, if i have my structual walls surrounded by tie beams and tie columns, the structural analysis will count the walls like if they were taking some load or it will only count beams and columns? im a bit confused about how to set properly the data for a structural analysis in revit.

 

Thank you! i hope u answer before february 2017 because by that time ill need the info for my thesis!!!

for the second question : yes it will take load if you make it structural element and enable analytical model for it

 

if it helped you please mark as solution
