Eurocode 6: Design of masonry structures - Part 3: Simplified calculation methods for unreinforced masonry structures
Also Known As:
Eurocode 6: Design of masonry structures - Part 3: Simplified calculation methods for unreinforced masonry structures is a standard that provides simplified calculation methods for the design of unreinforced masonry walls. These methods are specifically applicable to various types of walls, such as those subjected to vertical loading and wind loading, concentrated loads, shear walls, basement walls subjected to lateral earth pressure and vertical loads, and walls not subject to vertical loads.
The rules outlined in this part of Eurocode 6 are in alignment with those given in Part 1-1. However, they are more conservative in terms of their conditions and limitations of use. The simplified calculation methods provided in this standard aim to streamline the design process for unreinforced masonry structures, making it easier for engineers and designers to ensure structural integrity and safety.
By providing clear guidelines and simplified calculation methods, this standard enhances the efficiency and accuracy of designing unreinforced masonry structures, promoting consistency and ease of use. It serves as a valuable resource for professionals involved in the design and construction of masonry structures, providing reliable methods to ensure compliance with safety regulations and standards.
