EXAMPLE 11. MASONRY WITH THE EQUAL FRAME METHOD

PARADEIGMA 11: " MASONRY M.I.P." 22 3.3 AUDIT PREVIEW The printout includes only the items that fail A total of 9 failures. In item 18, at the end the indication is "No" despite the fact that the ratio is 0.315<1. The reason is that its indication in the 3D is red square which means it failed in tension. This is why there is no number under 'No' to indicate the type of failure. Member 16 which has two blue failures appears to be in the first level performance has failed by in-plane bending, but has not failed in B and C not (ratios less than unity). Note that the printout now includes (also for concrete) ONLY those elements that up to the step corresponding to performance level C have developed at one or both ends a plastic joint. That is, those which in all steps do NOT develop a plastic joint at either end and those which do, but at a step greater than the step corresponding to performance level C are NOT printed.
