Structural masonry designers' manual - 3rd ed. - Oxford Blackwell Science 2006 - xiv, 335p. ill. 31cm.
Introduction -- Advantages and disadvantages of structural masonry -- Design philosophy -- Limit state design -- Basis of design: (1) vertical loading, (2) lateral loading - tensile and shear strength -- Strapping, propping and tying of loadbearing masonry -- Stability, accidental damage and progressive collapse -- Structural elements and forms -- Design of masonry elements: (1) vertically loaded, (2) combined bending and axial loading -- Design of single-storey buildings -- Fin and diaphragm walls in tall single-storey buildings -- Design of multi-storey structures -- Reinforced and post-tensioned masonry -- Arches
Covers the structural use of brick and blockwork, and features a series of step-by-step design examples of typical elements and buildings. Includes the latest requirements of Building Regulations Parts A, E and L, changes to the code of practice and the specification of materials, sustainability issues, updated health and safety requirements, and recent innovations in structural masonry.
