Compressive Strength of Slender Concrete Masonry Walls
Sixty reinforced and unreinforced concrete masonry walls of different slenderness ratios were tested to failure under vertical loads applied axially and at various eccentricities. Prism specimens, made of similar masonry units and mortars, were also tested under the same loading conditions. Analysis of test results indicates that wall strength can be conservatively predicted by evaluating cross-sectional wall capacity on the basis of prism strength and reducing the capacity for slenderness effects by evaluating the added moments attributable to wall deflection. Test results were also compared with allowable loads computed in accordance with the current NCMA standard. (Author)
