Question

Calculate the second column of the lateral stiffness matrix (Ri2, 02 = 1) for the confined masonry cantilever wall shown. The footing, width = 1 m and length = 3 m, rests on a flexible soil with a subgrade coefficient equal to 10,000 ton/m2 x m. Suppose:

Confinement columns:

Ec = 2,000,000 ton/m2

thickness = 0.15 m

Masonry wall:

Ea = 500,000 tons/m2

Ea/Ga = 2.5

thickness = 0.15m

Calculate the second column of the lateral stiffness matrix (Ri2, 02 = 1) for the confined
masonry cantilever wall shown. The footing, width = 1 m and length = 3 m, rests on a
flexible soil with a subgrade coefficient equal to 10,000 ton/ m2 x m.
Suppose:
Confinement columns: Ec = 2'000,000 ton/m2 thickness = 0.15 m
Masonry wall:
Ea = 500,000 ton/m2
Ea/Ga = 2.5
thickness 0.15 m
Result (ton/m):
R12 = -26054
R22 = 36199
R32 = -15332
