Allowable Stress Design of Masonry #4: Wall Design for In-Plane Loads & Seismic Detailing
Shear walls are critical building elements to resist in-plane loads and are, for masonry, the wind and seismic-force-resisting system. This session reviews Allowable Stress Design of shear walls along with both seismic detailing requirements and minimum/maximum detailing requirements for such walls. Design for in-plane shear, including shear friction, and in-plane flexure is explored and examples provided. The effect of openings are also be examined.
Allowable Stress Design of Masonry introduces Allowable Stress Design (ASD) of Masonry, review code requirements, and examine designs of common masonry elements including, beams, walls, columns, and pilasters. The series discusses design methodology as well as design for flexure, axial loads, and in-plane loads. It concludes with a review of requirements for reinforcement and connectors and detailing masonry effectively. It is recommended that you have a basic familiarity with masonry (consistent with content presented in the Masonry 101 Series).

Learning Objectives:
- Introduce masonry shear walls and applied loads on these critical elements
- Discuss seismic detailing requirements for masonry shear walls
- Review the Allowable Stress design provisions for masonry shear walls for combined axial load and bending and for shear
- Discuss maximum and minimum reinforcement limits and detailing of shear walls when using Allowable Stress Design

This lesson is designed to provide a thorough understanding of mortar for new masonry construction, especially as it pertains to the responsibilities of a Special Inspector. It describes the purpose of mortar joining masonry units and the desirable properties of fresh and hardened mortar. It describes the materials that comprise mortar and explains how mortars are specified, batched, and mixed. Mixing considerations necessarily include good practices for hot and cold weather construction and the additional care required for colored mortar, both for materials and mixing requirements. This lesson briefly describes quality assurance and quality control for mortar, the difference between QA and QC, and typical reporting requirements related to that.
