Allowable Stress Design of Masonry #4
Wall Design for In-Plane Loads & Seismic Detailing
March 2, 2022
Shear walls are critical building elements to resist in-plane loads and are, for masonry, the wind and seismic-force-resisting system. This session will review Allowable Stress Design of shear walls, along with both seismic detailing requirements and minimum/maximum detailing requirements for such walls. Design for in-plane shear, including shear friction, and in-plane flexure will be explored and examples provided. The effect of openings will also be examined.
