Rational Design of Masonry Veneers and Shelf Angle Supports
![Awaiting product image](https://learn.masonrysociety.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/LMS-Default-Product-1.jpg)
Chapter 12 of the TMS 402 2016 includes provisions for the design of anchored and adhered masonry veneer. Although the vast majority of anchored masonry veneer systems are designed using the prescriptive provisions within this standard, veneers in high wind zones, high seismic zones, or constructed with large distances between the backing walls and the veneer cannot be designed using these prescriptive provisions. In addition, the prescriptive provisions do not often provide the most cost-effective solutions for the rehabilitation and retrofit of masonry veneers. The TMS 402 does have provisions for alternative rational design provisions for masonry veneers. These provisions are explained and a method for the rational veneer wall system design are presented. This lesson also describes a method for the design of the vertical Shelf angle support of the walls systems.

Learning Objectives:
- Describe the alternative design procedures for masonry veneers in TMS 402 (Chapter 12).
- Present an example of a rational veneer design.
- Describe how steel shelf angles provide vertical support to masonry veneers.
- Present a sample shelf angle design.

Structural Masonry Detailing: Confined Lap Splices
Most designers who engineer reinforced masonry know that code provisions for lap splice lengths have been evolving over the past few code editions. This course provides an overview of a newer confinement-steel option that has the potential to significantly reduce the lap splice lengths, especially for larger diameter bars, through confinement of the structural reinforcement.
