Panel Supported On Three Sides Example

This document provides details of the design of an unreinforced masonry wall panel that is 3000mm high and 4000mm long, including material properties, load calculations, and checking that the design moment does not exceed the moment of resistance. Key details are a wall thickness of 140mm, design moment of 0.958kNm/m, and moment of resistance perpendicular to bed joints of 1.089kNm/m, indicating the wall panel passes the design check.
