Course Information
Learn about the behaviour, components & strength of masonry in this free online course on design of masonry structures.
This course introduces you to the concept and meaning of masonry as a structural material. This course explains how masonry has been utilized as a structural solution in history and in the present day. This course all describes the constituents of masonry as well as the engineering properties of the said constituents. You will also be introduced to the behaviour of masonry units and their manufacturing processes.
This course explains in detail, the mechanical behaviour of masonry assembly under different kinds of compression, the strengths of the constituents of masonry and the assemblies of masonry. You will also learn about the possibility of a closed-form solution that results in the compressive strength of masonry. You will be introduced to the behaviour of masonry in shear.
This course also explains the structural design framework of masonry and the design considerations in masonry as far as IS 1905. You will learn about the Mann-Muller theory and its limitations. You will be introduced to some guidelines for reinforced masonry as well as some new terminologies. You will also learn about the categories of buildings and the design seismic coefficient. This course further explains the P-M interaction curve and its regions and the different procedures of the iterative approach.
