Not illustrated. 1922 edition. Excerpt: ...of the reaction against the wall, the total thrust is given an inclination downward equal to the angle of friction. While it may be true that seepage of water along the back of the wall would reduce this coefficient of friction, it certainly A C Flo. 10S.--Retaining wall inclined towards the fill. would never eliminate it entirely. For this reason, therefore, the assumption that there is no frictional component downward along the back of the wall, while on the side of safety, is needlessly conservative, for it not only yields a larger overturning moment but disregards a force that tends to hold the wall in place. The angle of friction of wet earth against the back of the wall is probably the minimum value that need be assigned to z for accurate designing, yet the practice of engineers has been generally to allow nothing for this friction and to use the formulas resulting from neglecting it. For an inclined back, the direction of the thrust can be ascertained only by the theoretical formulas mentioned above or an equivalent method, but for the ordinary cases, the modification for walls inclined forward is slight, and since the reliability of the results is questionable, a further exposition of the subject will not here be made. Where the earth fill slopes downward, i.e., the angle of surcharge is negative, the value of the thrust obtained from Eq. (12) theoretically is correct, but it includes an element of passive force, and hence, the active force is somewhat less than that amount. In Fig. 108, the pressure on A B is less than it would be on its projection, BC, because of the presence of a prism of earth ABC between the plane BC and the wall. This decrease in the pressure may be assumed to be in proportion to the mass of this triangular...

Excerpt from The Design of Masonry Structures and Foundations Due to investigations, both analytical and experimental, that have been made in recent years of the properties of masonry materials, the forces to which masonry structures are subjected, and the behavior of such structures, masonry design and con struction have largely passed from the status of an art to that of a science, much as did bridge design after the invention of methods for calculating stresses in truss members. The extensive use of concrete with the studies that have been made to improve its quality and to secure economy in its use, and the development of reinforced concrete, a masonry material capable of sustaining tensile strains and requiring a stress analysis in order to propor tion the steel, have contributed largely to this changed status in the design of masonry structures. This scientific understanding of masonry design has widened the use of masonry to include many structures for which other materials formerly were used exclusively, although for the most part, notwithstanding their diversity, these structures can be grouped about a comparatively few representative types. The soft and pleasing hues and outlines of masonry structures as well as their durability have appealed to builders from time immemorial, and masonry still offers the best means of building artistically and strongly with the economy that results from permanence. Moreover, there is an increasing demand in the design of engineering structures to secure not only stability and economy but something of elegance, grace and beauty in addition. Since good architectural treatment can be secured with but slight if any increase in the cost, it is appropriate that this phase of design should be given special attention in planning masonry structures.

Emphasizes actual structural design, not analysis, of multistory buildings for seismic resistance. Strong emphasis is placed on specific detailing requirements for construction. Fundamental design principles are presented to create buildings that respond to a wide range of potential seismic forces, which are illustrated by numerous detailed examples. The discussion includes the design of reinforced concrete ductile frames, structural walls, dual systems, reinforced masonry structures, buildings with restricted ductility and foundation walls. In addition to the examples, full design calculations are given for three prototype structures.

A Complete Guide to Masonry Materials and Structural Design Written by the former chair of the Masonry Standards Joint Committee (MSJC), this authoritative volume covers the design of masonry structures using the 2009 International Building Code and the 2008 MSJC Code and Specification. Masonry Structural Design emphasizes the strength design of masonry and includes allowable-stress provisions. Innovations such as autoclaved aerated concrete masonry (AAC) are also discussed. Real-world case studies featuring a low-rise building with reinforced concrete masonry and a four-story building with clay masonry illustrate the techniques presented in this comprehensive resource. Coverage includes: Basic structural behavior and design of low-rise, bearing wall buildings Materials used in masonry construction Code basis for structural design of masonry buildings, including seismic design Introduction of MSJC treatment of structural design Strength design of reinforced and unreinforced masonry elements Allowable-stress design of reinforced and unreinforced masonry elements Comparison of design by the allowable-stress approach versus the strength approach Lateral load analysis of shear wall structure Design and detailing of floor and roof diaphragms
