Timbercrete Structural Design-2

Design of Timbercrete Masonry
Scope and limitations of this spreadsheet
This Microsoft Excel spreadsheet may be used by Structural Design Engineers for the design by ultimate load limit state m
subject to out-of-plane horizontal loads, in-plane horizonal loads and vertical loads.
The design is in accordance with AS 3700-2001.
The design must be carried out by qualified and experienced Structural Engineers.
The design assumptions set out herein must be verified by the Structural Engineer.
The Structural Engineer must take responsibility for:
*
Verifying the suitability of the particular application,
Obtaining accurate and representative characteristic material properties,
Ensuring the construction complies with AS 3700-1998, including steel anchorage.
Ensuring that the assumed support conditions are achieved, and not compromised by control joints, chases, flashing
Quasar Management Services Pty Ltd and Electronic Blueprint can not assume any responsibility for the incorrect, inappro
sheet.
To use this spreadsheet

Light green cells indicate that the user must confirm the value or input a new value at this point.
Light yellow cells indicate the results of calculations at significant stages of the process.
Yellow cells indicate the principal results of calculations at the completion of each major stage.
Turquoise cells indicate the results of design checks (OK or Problem) and factor against failure.
Purple cells indicate other important information.
