    Lever arm on bolts with Mortar

    Thanks for replies all! The bending forces should be small, even for reasonable shear loads (100-200kN). What are the appropriate stress formulas to use, subject to the resultant bending, to ensure the yield strength of the bolt is not exceeded? Liam

    Seismic Resonance Impact on Buildings

    Hi Mahmoud, Which code will you be needing to use? Eurocode is quite thorough in this regard, and is relatively simple to follow. I have undertaken seismic design checks in the UK (Which is rare) to EC8. As you say this is linked to the ground conditions and spectra response. Liam

    Lever arm on bolts with Mortar

    Hi, This is quite specific, but does anyone have any experience specifically to code of seemingly conservative estimates of bolt shear strength, where mortar is used? This is specifically in clause 6.2.2.3 in BS EN 1992-4:2018: 6.2.2.3 Shear loads with and without lever arm (1) Shear loads...
