If you could help me answer these questions in matlab that would be great, I provided an additional picture detailing what the outcome should look like.
A fully grouted reinforced masonry wall is to be constructed of 8-in. CMU. The wall height is 18feet. It is assumed to be simply supported. The wall is to be designed for an out-of-plane seismicload of 52 lbs./ft.2, which can act in either direction. The wall also supports a roof dead load of600 lbs./ft. and a roof live load of 300 lbs./ft. along the wall length. The roof loads have aneccentricity of 2.5 inches. Since there is seismic load, load combinations (6) and (7) in Chapter 2of ASCE 7-22 should be considered. In these two load combinations,horizontal seismic loadhE =andvertical seismic loadvE = . You may ignorevE in this problem for simplicity. The masonryhas a specified compressive strength of 2,500 psi. (a) Use the strength design provisions of TMS402 to determine the size and spacing of the vertical bars needed. Use the P-δ analysis method inSection 9.3.4.4.2 of TMS 402 to determine Mu. (b) Repeat the design using the momentmagnification method in Section 9.3.4.4.3 instead.
The factor of safety for tipping of the concrete dam is defined as the ratio of the stabilizing moment due to the dam's weight divided by the overturning moment about OO due to the water pressure (Figure 1). Suppose that aa = 5 mm , dd = 2 mm , hh = 7 mm . The concrete has a density of ρconcρconc = 2.5 Mg/m3Mg/m3 and for water ρwρw = 1 Mg/m3Mg/m3
