The overall lateral wall system has enough ULS capacity for the required total lateral wind force. The distribution of lateral force resisting walls is not ideal though (large space between). I have 1 of floor beam that connects to the top of the core filled reinforced block wall. If axial load...
Hi All,
I know it’s not preferred, but has anyone used core filled reinforced block walls for out of plane lateral loads? I’m looking at a relatively small structure that has a 3m high cantilever wall (supported at base). The wall has sufficient robustness for a 0.5kPa load. The wall also has...
