Download or read book Strength of Masonry Walls Under Compressive and Transverse Loads written by Felix Y. Yokel and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ninety walls of 10 different types of masonry construction were tested under various combinations of vertical and transverse load. It is shown that the effect of vertical load and wall slenderness on transverse strength can be predicted by rational analysis. The analysis is based on established theory which has been extended to account for the properties of masonry. Similar methods of rational analysis have been adopted for the design of steel structures and are presently being considered for reinforced concrete structures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A series of structural evaluation tests performed on components and materials intended for use in one of the Operation BREAKTHROUGH housing systems is described. Four samples of steel faced, paper honeycomb, sandwich panel material and four full size prototype roof panels were evaluated. The samples of sandwich panel material were used to evaluate the variability of panel material properties and the effect of aging on tensile and shear strength. The roof panels were used to determine the behavior in service considering the effects of adverse environmental conditions on ultimate strength and mode of failure. In addition, the performance of one panel under sustained loading was evaluated. (Author).

Download or read book Structural Deflections written by Theodore V. Galambos and published by . This book was released on 1973 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A literature survey and state-of-the-art study was complied using 233 primary source documents, research papers, and texts. Over 800 documents were scanned to arrive at the primary source documents. The problem of structural deflections is discussed and reviewed in its component areas of static and dynamic deflections as related to forcing functions and structural characteristics. Also the interactions of major structural dflections with building structures subsystems and human occupants is reviewed. Emphasis is placed on serviceability limit states of deflections. Detailed comparisons of human response to structural vibrations are also made. The report is broad in scope and covers the areas of analysis, design and experimentation. (Author).

Download or read book Tall Building Criteria and Loading written by Leslie E. Robertson and published by ASCE Publications. This book was released on 1980-01-01 with total page 916 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prepared by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat of ASCE. This report examines the loads to which tall buildings are subjected so that engineers can precisely define the related structural elements that are necessary before translating a client's needs into a safe design. The report explores five different classes of loads?gravity loads and temperature affects, earthquake loads, wind loading and wind effects, fire, and accidental loads?as well as quality control and overall safety considerations.ØSteel buildings, which hold the record for height, tax the designer's ingenuity to provide adequate resistance to lateral loading. Concrete buildings are both more numerous and widely distributed, and for them vertical gravity loads may be the chief problem. Both steel and concrete buildings and lateral and vertical loads are addressed. Other subjects covered include: dead, live, cyclic snow, construction, and combined loads; code requirements; meteorological and environmental factors in design; firefighting provisions; and modeling. Contributions came from more than 800 contributors, all international and professional and heavily representing design and industrial firms. Condensed references follow each chapter, and a glossary is included.
