Question: Given: 8 ungrouted CMU with a self - weight of 3 3 l b f t Type S , face - shell bedded, PCL

Given:
8" ungrouted CMU with a self-weight of 33lbft
Type S, face-shell bedded, PCL mortar
f'm=2,000 psi
Find:
For the masonry design strip (DS-1),
a. Find the required axial load carrying capacity of the wall based on the governing load combination given by Eq.(16-3),(16-4), and (16-6) of the Florida Building Code.
b. Calculate the design load carrying capacity of the wall, including slenderness (P-delta effects). Perform appropriate design checks per TMS 402 and state whether these are satisfied.
c. Find the required axial compressive stress at the base of the wall based on the governing load combination given by Eq.(16-3),(16-4), and (16-6) of the Florida Building Code.
d. Calculate the design axial compressive stress at the base of the wall. Perform appropriate design checks per TMS 402 and state whether these are satisfied.
