Description
The design of reinforced masonry shear walls using both the Allowable Stress Design method and the Strength Design method is covered in this lesson. The requirements for both the design for overturning and the design for shear are explained. The prescriptive seismic detailing requirements for each of three reinforced masonry shear walls types, ordinary, intermediate, and special, are explained, with particular attention to special reinforced shear walls. The design process is illustrated with examples.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the three different types of reinforced masonry shear walls and the requirements for each type.
- Understand seismic design requirements for shear walls.
- Understand the design process for shear walls using the Allowable Stress Design method.
- Understand the design process for shear walls using the Strength Design method.

Anchor Bolt Design
This lesson covers the basis for these changes two major changes to the anchor bolt design provisions in the 2016 edition of TMS 402. One change was to increase the calculated shear crushing strength by 67%. The other change was to go from a linear interaction equation for combined bending and shear to an elliptical interaction equation.

Nondestructive Evaluation and Testing of Masonry
Nondestructive evaluation methods are valuable approaches for evaluating conditions of existing masonry construction without causing damage. Masonry strength can also be measured in place using in situ test methods, without resorting to destructive sample removal for laboratory testing.
