Masonry wall panel design (MSJC)

This video demonstrates the Tekla Tedds precast concrete bearing design calculation. The calculation determines the capacity of concrete and clay masonry wall panels of single-wythe construction featuring solid or hollow masonry. Hollow masonry can be grouted and may include vertical and horizontal reinforcement. The panels may be subject to a variety of loading conditions in plane and out of plane. These include vertical dead, live and roof loads including vertical wind loads from roof. Lateral loads (seismic or wind) can be defined with shear and moment loads at the top of the wall for in plane design or pressures on the height of the wall and parapet for out of plane loading. A range of predefined load combinations can be selected.
