masonry bearing stress
does anyone know where i can find the allowable bearing stress for masonry in the ibc? i cannot find the old 0.26 f'm / 0.38 f'm from the ubc in the new ibc codes. am i missing something?

check out our whitepaper library.
via ibc 2000, section 2107.1 - design of asd for masonry is per aci 530.
in aci 530 - section 2.1.9.2 - the bearing stress is given as 0.25 f'm.
the ibc is moving more and more to a code that references external standards...such as aci 318 for concrete, aisc specifications for steel, etc. |
