Allowable Stress Design for Reinforced Masonry
This webinar covers major changes to the allowable stress design provisions from the 2008 to the 2011 MSJC Code. Allowable stress design of flexural elements (beams/lintels and non-load-bearing walls), combined flexural and axial load elements (bearing walls) and in-plane shear (shear walls) are covered. Design procedures and design examples are presented.
