(2) Problem--
(a) Determine the reinforcing bar size and spacing required to resist the given loadings.
(b) Compare the calculated resisting moment values with the values for resisting moments given
in table B-4.
(c) Compare the reinforcing results from the calculated solution with the direct solution given in
table B-47.
(3) Solution. Equations are from chapters 5 and 6. Flexural Check:
(a) First determine the maximum applied moment that must be resisted by the wall.
Horizontal reaction at the bottom of the wall is Ra:

Maximum moment in the wall is Mmax

Mmax' (330.31b)(13.2 ft) &

= 4360 - 2178 = 2182 ft-lb/foot of wall
Assume the reinforcement spacing, S, is 24 inches and determine the design maximum moment, Design Mmax,
in the wall as follows:
Design Mmax = (2182 ft-lbX24 in)/(12 in/ft)
= 4364 ft-lb/S
(b) Determine the resisting moments n the wall assuming 1-#6 @ 24 in. o.c. Assume the flexural
compression area is rectangular and compare to the T-section design from table B-4.
Masonry resisting moment is Mrm:

Where:
p = As/bd1 = (0.44 in2)/(24 in)(5.81 in) = 0.0032
np = (21.5)(0.0032) = 0.0688
k = [(np)2 + 2np] - np
k = [(0.0688)2 + (2)(0.0688)] - 0.0688
= [0.00473 + 0.1376] - 0.0688 = 0.308
j = 1 - k/3 = 1 - 0.308/3 = 0.897
