Masonry

How Masonry Walls Support Buildings

Description

Masonry load-bearing walls support floors and roofs and carry those loads down to the foundation. They are built from brick, stone, or concrete masonry units. These walls rely on compressive strength, which means they can resist pushes from above very well.

Masonry walls may be reinforced or unre...

砌体承重墙采用砖、石或混凝土砌块砌筑,以支撑楼板和屋顶结构。

这些墙体承受其自身重量以及屋面系统的静荷载,并将这些荷载传递至建筑的基础结构。

砌体承重墙在受压时具有较高的强度,可采用有筋或无筋的方式建造。

由于砌体单元之间的砂浆强度较低,因此这些墙体的工作应力远低于砌体单元的极限强度。

对于具有较大开放区域的低层和多层建筑(如学校),采用砌体承重墙与室内砌体柱相结合的方式被认为是理想的。

在这种条件下,承重墙既提供了高效的结构框架,又充当了建筑物的围护结构。

与此同时,在框架结构中,必须设置独立的系统来填充承重部分之间的空间,并围合内部空间。

然而,对于高层建筑,更倾向于采用框架结构,因为...
