10D. DIMENSIONING PART 4/4

CHAPTER 10D 'DIMENSIONING' 21 In SCADA Pro the provisions of EC8-3 for the evaluation of buildings made of load-bearing masonry under seismic loading have been implemented. The recommendations of the regulation apply to masonry elements resisting lateral forces within their plane. This includes both the lintels and the lintels of a wall. The checks applied are at the cross-sectional level of the pile/floor, where the prevailing intensive magnitude is either: 1. the axial force and bending, either 2. the cutting machine The critical failure of the masonry element is therefore obtained and its load-bearing capacity is calculated accordingly for all three performance levels A, B and C. • Conditions for the application of the Method of Analysis (EC8-3, C3.2): • Walls uniformly arranged in both horizontal seismic directions, • The walls should be continuous in height, • Floors shall have sufficient stiffness within their level and be adequately peripherally connected to ensure diaphragm function. • Lack of anisostatisfactions, • Ratio of in-plane stiffness of the strongest wall to the weakest wall < 2.5,for each floor. After the process is complete, select the command In the dialog box that opens, you are asked to specify the walls in the same way as described in "New masonry building". OBSERVATION: The identification of pins/recesses is done automatically by the program. So you define the entire wall with the openings and the program automatically checks by separating the openings.
