Design Example V6: 3000mm End Conditions

The document discusses recalculating the vertical load capacity of an inner loadbearing concrete block wall leaf to carry additional horizontal wind loading and with different masonry units. It provides the dimensions, material strengths, and design loads of the wall and suggests calculating bending moments to assess the load capacity.

DESIGN EXAMPLE V6

3000mm

End conditions

Taking Design Example 3 for the lower lift of the inner loadbearing leaf of a 4-storey cavity wall, it is now required to carry a horizontal wind suction design loading of 1,0 kN/m2 in addition to the 130 kN/m design vertical loading as before. The Group 1 concrete block masonry units have a compressive strength of 7,3 N/mm2 (9,5 N/mm2 normalised compressive strength). Recalulate the vertical load capacity of the wall inner leaf loadbearing concrete blockwork to assess that it can carry the vertical design load under these revised loading conditions. Recalculate the vertical load capacity of the wall inner loadbearing leaf using Group 1 clay brick masonry units with a compressive strength of 50 N/mm2 (42,5 N/mm2 normalised compressive strength) with the loadbearing leaf constructed in 102,5 mm thickness brickwork.

Helpful Tip: The bending moments of a single span encastre member with ud loading are WL/12 at end supports and WL/24 at centre of span.
