EXAMPLE 7. VALUATION OF A BUILDING FROM LOAD-BEARING MASONRY

EXAMPLE 7: 'VALUATION OF A MASONRY BUILDING' 64 ❖ Performance Levels B and C checks in terms of deformations OBSERVATION: For the checks to be performed, both options in the out-of-plane bend must be checked, regardless of whether or not the "Draft KADET) Checks are presented for bending parallel to the vertical joint and correspondingly parallel to the horizontal joint. The final angular deformations shown have been multiplied by incremental factors based on the following: To check performance criteria B and C, the inelastic movements (dinel) of the building are required. relationship between the former and the latter is given in the comments paragraph 5.4.4 of the K.A.D.E.T. d inel = 1 for T ≥ T d c el (Σ.5.3) 1.0 + ( q − 1) T c d inel = T for T < T d q c el (Σ.5.4) A coefficient is calculated per direction and used depending on the type of seismic combination (x or z) IMPORTANT !! To calculate this coefficient, q and Tc are required. In order for the program to read them, the controls in the analysis must be opened. If you want to see the actual deformations put q=1 in the analysis or use a non-seismic combination (the augmentation is only done for seismic ones)
