Trial Designs Made in Accordance with Tentative Limit States Design Standards for Reinforced Masonry Buildings
The end product of the research is the development of seismic design recommendations that will utilize masonry materials in a cost-effective manner. Cost-effective use of masonry in the United States must consider first cost and limitation of possible damage due to natural hazards such as earthquakes. A draft of a Masonry Limit States Design Standard (Tentative Standard) has been written and is being reviewed by a Joint Masonry Standard Committee of the ACI, ASCE and TMS. The Tentative Standard utilizes the NEHRP Recommended Provisions as a reference for general seismic design provisions. However, the Tentative Standard includes recommendations for seismic design in accordance with a limit states design as the NEHRP Recommended Provisions coordinates its seismic design provisions with working stress standards such as ACI/ASCE 530.
