During Existing Masonry Night School: Assessment, Maintenance, and Repair of Transitional Masonry Structures, instructors will discuss the most common issues in assessing, maintaining, and where needed, repairing masonry cladding systems constructed in North America between the 1880 and 1945. Building on concepts presented during prior sessions, we will discuss approaches for obtaining information on material...
During Existing Masonry Night School: Assessment, Maintenance, and Repair of Transitional Masonry Structures, instructors will discuss the most common issues in assessing, maintaining, and where needed, repairing masonry cladding systems constructed in North America between the 1880 and 1945. Once the assessment is complete and the deterioration mechanisms are known, rehabilitation options can be considered....
During Existing Masonry Night School: Assessment, Maintenance, and Repair of Transitional Masonry Structures, instructors will discuss the most common issues in assessing, maintaining, and where needed, repairing masonry cladding systems constructed in North America between the 1880 and 1945. Once an assessment is complete and a rehabilitation approach has been selected, implementing the rehabilitation work...
During Existing Masonry Night School: Assessment, Maintenance, and Repair of Transitional Masonry Structures, instructors will discuss the most common issues in assessing, maintaining, and where needed, repairing masonry cladding systems constructed in North America between the 1880 and 1945. While masonry is extraordinarily durable, maintenance is required from time to time. Based on inspection and...
This introductory session introduces the Allowable Stress Design of Masonry series and reviews basic Allowable Stress Design concepts. Dr. McGinley will present key differences between allowable stress design and strength design procedures. This session will also review masonry assemblies and systems, noting their purposes and resistance to primary loads. Attendees will learn about typical masonry...
The second session of the Allowable Stress Design of Masonry series reviews allowable stress design of masonry beams and lintels. This session also provides an examination of whether arching action can be used to reduce the loads on these elements. Deflection calculations will be reviewed, along with code compliance requirements relating to reinforcement and grouting....
During this session, allowable stress design of masonry walls loaded with out-of-plane loads and axial loads will be reviewed. Differences in the Allowable Stress design provisions and strength design procedures will be briefly discussed, especially the secondary bending moments. Learning Objectives Review the design of walls loaded with out-of-plane with axial loads, including a brief...
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...
Masonry columns and pilasters are often used in masonry buildings to carry large, concentrated loads, and, for pilasters, to support exterior walls subjected to out-of-plane loads. ASD design and detailing required for these elements will be reviewed. This session will also look at several sample masonry buildings to illustrate system behavior and overall design methodology....
Reinforcement and connectors are essential to ensure a proper load path in masonry buildings. This session will review basic detailing requirements for reinforcement and connectors, and specific requirements for their design when using allowable stress procedures for masonry. Lap length requirements for reinforcement, use of hooks and confinement bars, and the design of anchor bolts...
