MASONRY STRUCTURES ACCORDING TO EUROCODE 6 AND STANDARDS - VOLUME 2

Discover the fascinating world of masonry structures, which have been the foundation of construction for centuries. From ancient walls to modern buildings, walls play a key role in architecture and engineering. This book is a comprehensive guide to the design and analysis of masonry structures in accordance with the latest European standards.

• Detailed discussion of Eurocode 6
• Practical calculation examples based on construction projects
• Comprehensive approach to design using the Limit State method
• Analysis of conditions ULS and SLS of unreinforced, reinforced and prestressed structures
• Constructional and execution requirements
• Issues related to walls in a complex state of stress
• Design of walls taking into account fire conditions

The book "Masonry structures according to Eurocode 6 and standards..." is an invaluable source of knowledge for students, lecturers, designers, appraisers, contractors and construction supervision inspectors. The authors, Adam Piekarczyk, Łukasz Drobiec and Radosław Jasiński, are recognized experts in the field of building structures who present complex engineering topics in an accessible way. This publication is the second volume in the series on masonry structures, offering an in-depth analysis of issues related to the design and verification of walls under various loading conditions.

The book provides a detailed discussion of issues such as walls in a complex state of stress, unreinforced masonry walls subjected to shear loads, bending out of plane and in plane, and subjected to combined vertical and perpendicular loads to their surface, stiffening walls and the design of walls taking into account fire conditions. Each issue is presented in a comprehensive manner, taking into account the theoretical foundations, normative provisions and design algorithms. In addition, numerous calculation examples based on real construction projects allow for a practical understanding of the discussed issues.

With this book, you will gain the knowledge necessary to design safe and durable masonry structures that meet all normative requirements. Whether you are a student, designer or contractor, this publication will help you implement even the most complex construction projects. Use the knowledge contained in this book to create innovative and effective masonry structures that will last for many years.
