stronger than the wall for full load transfer from diaphragm to wall.
2
Remaining shear stress = fvi = fv - fvt = 0.057 N/mm
The bars going through the slab from vertical splint should have capacity to resist this shear

iii. Retrofit design of walls :

Check for Wall X1:


Shear stress induced in wall:
Shear force in wall = Fv = 305.473 kN
Length of wall = L = 22.849 m
Thickness of wall = t = 350 mm
Length of openings = lo = 8.300 m
2
Area of wall = A = 5.092 m
2
Average shear stress in wall = fvi= Fv * A = 0.060 N/mm

Shear strength of the masonry wall as per in place shear test result:
2
Shear strength value from shear test = 0.372 N/mm
Allowable shear strength value
2
(taking 42% of test value) = fvt = 0.156 N/mm
Shear strength of wall = F1= fvt A = 795.598 kN

Dowel action of bar in vertical band :


{Ref, Miha Tomazevic, Earthquake resistant design of masonry
Nos of vertical band resisting shear = N = 15 nos.
Dia of vertical bar1 = d1 = 8
Nos of vertical bar1 in each band = n1 = 2 nos.
Dia of vertical bar2 = d2 = 4.75 nos.
Nos of vertical bar2 in each band = n2 = 1 mm
Allowable compressive Strength of the mortar
2
(embedding mortar or grout of band) = fc = 4 N/mm
2
Yield strength of steel = fy = 415 N/mm
2
Allowable stress in steel = fs = 230 N/mm
Horizontal shear force resisting capacity:
2
F2 = 1.25[ 0.806 N(n1 d1 + n2 d22 )√(fc fs)] = 69.016 kN

Shear resistance due to direct tension in the horizontal bar:

Nos of horizontal band = N = 2 nos.


2
Tensile capacity of each band = Ft = 33.997 N/mm
Horizontal shear resistance = F3 = N Ft = 67.995 kN

Shear resistance due to horizontal bars in one face jacketing with 4.75 mm dia mesh with
spacing of 300mm c/c:

Shear resistance due to one face jacketing = Fvj = 20.379 kN/mstrip/face


Height of wall = h = 2.300 m
Shear strength of bars in jacketing = F4 = Fvj h = 46.871 kN

Dowel action due to vertical bars in one face jacketing with 4.75 mm dia mesh with spacing
of 150mm c/c:
Dia of vertical bar = d = 4.75
Nos of vertical bars = n = 98 nos.
Allowable compressive Strength of the mortar
2
(embedding mortar or grout of band) = fc = 4 N/mm
2
Yield strength of steel = fy = 415 N/mm
2
Allowable stress in steel = fs = 230 N/mm
Horizontal shear force resisting capacity:
2
F2 = 1.25[ 0.806 (n d )√(fc fs)] = 67.570 kN

Check for total shear capacity of wall:

Total shear resistance = Ft = F1+ F2+ F3+ F4+F5 = 1047.048 kN


2
Shear strength = fvr =F/A = 0.206 N/mm

Shear resisting capacity > induced shear , Hence safe in shear

Check for the diaphragm action due to connectivity in slab and wall:
The shear stress of wall and slab interface
2
(assumed shear strength value) = fvt = 0.156 N/mm
2
Shear strength of the wall after retrofitting = fv = 0.206 N/mm
As earthquake force can be higher than the design level earthquake, the interface must be
stronger than the wall for full load transfer from diaphragm to wall.
2
Remaining shear stress = fvi = fv - fvt = 0.049 N/mm
The bars going through the slab from vertical splint should have capacity to resist this shear
2
Shear strength of bar = fvs = 0.4 fy = 166 N/mm
No. of vertical bands = 15
No of bars 8mm dia. from inside = 2 nos.
Dia. of bars = d1 = 8 mm
Total no. of 8mm dia. Bar from inside = n1 = 30 nos.
Providing 8mm dia. bars of length 600mm @450mm c/c at the wall and slab interface at
outer face,
No of bars 8mm dia. from outside = n2 = 52 nos.
Dia. of bars = d1 = 8 nos.

Area of steel = Ast = 4121.77 mm

Total bending moment in region 1 = m = 0.650 kNm/m


Width of wall = 225 mm
Width of region 1 = w = 0.975 m
Total bending moment in region 1 = M= m w = 0.634 kNm

Total bending moment in region 2 = m = 0.950 kNm/m


Width of wall = 225 mm
Width of region 2 = w = 1.175 m
Total bending moment in region 2 = M= m w = 1.116 kNm

Total bending moment in region 3 = m = 0.720 kNm/m


Width of wall = 225 mm
Width of region 3 = w = 0.975 m
Total bending moment in region 3 = M= m w = 0.702 kNm

Total bending moment in region 4 = m = 0.500 kNm/m


Width of wall = 225 mm
Width of region 4 = w = 0.975 m
Total bending moment in region 4 = M= m w = 0.488 kNm

ii. Retrofit design of walls :
Providing full jacketing of Tor steel on outer faces of all peripheral walls and vertical
bandages around the openings, at cross walls and mid span of long walls on inner face of
peripheral walls and both inner and outer faces of internal walls.
Wall Y1 is attached to the adjacent building, hence provide full jacketing only on inner face
of the wall.

Sample design of Wall X1:

Max. bending moment per m = m = 2.15 kNm/m


Width of wall in ground floor = 225 mm
Max. bending moment = M = 2.29 kNm

For outer face, Use Option 1: Retrofitting of wall with Tor Steel (4.75 mm @ 150 mm c/c)
jacketing with moment capacities 9.807 kNm/m in 225mm thk. wall and 14.262 kNm/m in
350mm thk. wall.
For inner face, Use 2-8mm and 1-4.75 mm dia. in 300mm wide vertical band with moment
capacities 9.35 kNm in 225mm thk. wall and 13.6 kNm in 350mm thk. Wall.

Check for Wall X1:


Shear stress induced in wall:
Shear force in wall = Fv = 273.227 kN
Length of wall = L = 13.300 m
Thickness of wall = t = 225 mm
Length of openings = lo = 3.600 m
2
Area of wall = A = 2.183 m
2
Average shear stress in wall = fvi= Fv * A = 0.125 N/mm

Shear strength of the masonry wall as per in place shear test result:
2
Shear strength value from shear test = 0.364 N/mm
Allowable shear strength value
2
(taking 42% of test value) = fvt = 0.153 N/mm
Shear strength of wall = F1= fvt A = 333.661 kN

Dowel action of bar in vertical band :


{Ref, Miha Tomazevic, Earthquake resistant design of masonry
Nos of vertical band resisting shear = N = 12 nos.
Dia of vertical bar1 = d1 = 8
Nos of vertical bar1 in each band = n1 = 2 nos.
Dia of vertical bar2 = d2 = 4.75 nos.
Nos of vertical bar2 in each band = n2 = 1 mm
Allowable compressive Strength of the mortar
2
(embedding mortar or grout of band) = fc = 4 N/mm
2
Yield strength of steel = fy = 415 N/mm
2
Allowable stress in steel = fs = 230 N/mm
Horizontal shear force resisting capacity:
2
F2 = 1.25[ 0.806 N(n1 d1 + n2 d22 )√(fc fs)] = 55.212 kN

Shear resistance due to direct tension in the horizontal bar:

Nos of horizontal band = N = 2 nos.


2
Tensile capacity of each band = Ft = 33.997 N/mm
Horizontal shear resistance = F3 = N Ft = 67.995 kN

Shear resistance due to horizontal bars in one face jacketing with 4.75 mm dia mesh with
spacing of 300mm c/c:

Shear resistance due to one face jacketing = Fvj = 20.379 kN/mstrip/face


Height of wall = h = 2.250 m
Shear strength of bars in jacketing = F4 = Fvj h = 45.852 kN
Dowel action due to vertical bars in one face jacketing with 4.75 mm dia mesh with spacing
of 150mm c/c:
Dia of vertical bar = d = 4.75
Nos of vertical bars = n = 66 nos.
Allowable compressive Strength of the mortar
2
(embedding mortar or grout of band) = fc = 4 N/mm
2
Yield strength of steel = fy = 415 N/mm
2
Allowable stress in steel = fs = 230 N/mm
Horizontal shear force resisting capacity:
2
F2 = 1.25[ 0.806 (n d )√(fc fs)] = 45.506 kN

Check for total shear capacity of wall:

Total shear resistance = Ft = F1+ F2+ F3+ F4+F5 = 548.226 kN


2
Shear strength = fvr =F/A = 0.251 N/mm

Shear resisting capacity > induced shear , Hence safe in shear

Check for the diaphragm action due to connectivity in slab and wall:
The shear stress of wall and slab interface
2
(assumed shear strength value) = fvt = 0.153 N/mm
2
Shear strength of the wall after retrofitting = fv = 0.251 N/mm
As earthquake force can be higher than the design level earthquake, the interface must be
stronger than the wall for full load transfer from diaphragm to wall.
2
Remaining shear stress = fvi = fv - fvt = 0.098 N/mm
The bars going through the slab from vertical splint should have capacity to resist this shear
2
Shear strength of bar = fvs = 0.4 fy = 166 N/mm

No of bars 8mm dia. from inside = 2 nos.
Dia. of bars = d1 = 8 mm
Total no. of 8mm dia. Bar from inside = n1 = 24 nos.
Providing 8mm dia. bars of length 600mm @450mm c/c at the wall and slab interface at
outer face,
No of bars 8mm dia. from outside = n2 = 31 nos.
Dia. of bars = d1 = 8 nos.

Shear stress induced in wall X2
Shear force in wall (From SAP) = Fv = 313.56 kN
Length of wall = L = 16.575 m
Thickness of wall = t = 225 mm

Shear strength of wall = F1= fvt A = 236.921 kN

Dowel action of bar in vertical band :


{Ref, Miha Tomazevic, Earthquake
resistant design of masonry buildings}
Nos of vertical band resisting shear = N = 0 nos.
Dia of vertical bar1 = d1 = 8
Nos of vertical bar1 in each band = n1 = 2 nos.
Dia of vertical bar2 = d2 = 4.75 nos.

Nos of vertical bar2 in each band = n2 = 1 mm


Allowable compressive Strength of the
mortar
2
(embedding mortar or grout of band) = fc = 4 N/mm
2
Yield strength of steel = fy = 415 N/mm
2
Allowable stress in steel = fs = 230 N/mm
Horizontal shear force resisting capacity:
2
F2 = 1.25[ 0.806 N(n1 d1 + n2 d22 )√(fc fs)] = 0.000 kN

Shear resistance due to direct tension in the horizontal band:

Nos of horizontal band = N = 0 nos.


2
Tensile capacity of each band = Ft = 33.997 N/mm
Horizontal shear resistance = F3 = N Ft = 0.000 kN

Shear resistance due to horizontal bars in


both face jacketing
with 4.75 mm dia mesh with spacing of
300mm c/c
Shear resistance due to one face jacketing = Fvj = 71.325 kN/mstrip/face
Height of wall = h = 2.850 m
Shear strength of bars in jacketing = F4 = Fvj h = 203.277 kN

Dowel action due to vertical bars in one


face jacketing with 4.75 mm dia mesh
with spacing of 150mm c/c
Dia of vertical bar = d = 4.75
Nos of vertical bars = n = 70 nos.
Allowable compressive Strength of the
mortar
2
(embedding mortar or grout of band) = fc = 4 N/mm
2
Yield strength of steel = fy = 415 N/mm
2
Allowable stress in steel = fs = 230 N/mm
Horizontal shear force resisting capacity:
2
F2 = 1.25[ 0.806 (n d )√(fc fs)] = 48.264 kN

Check for total shear capacity of wall


Ft = F1+ F2
Total shear resistance = + F3+ F4+F5 = 488.462 kN
2
Shear strength = fvr =F/A = 0.211 N/mm

Shear resisting capacity > induced shear , Hence safe in

Shear stress induced in wall: X1
Shear force in wall (From SAP) = Fv = 856.387 kN
Length of wall = L = 23.300 m
Thickness of wall = t = 600 mm
Length of openings = lo = 6.200 m
2
Area of wall = A = 10.260 m
2
Average shear stress in wall = fvi= Fv * A = 0.083 N/mm

Shear strength of the masonry wall as per in place shear test result
2
Shear strength value from shear test = 0.1 N/mm
Allowable shear strength value

(taking 42% of test value) = fvt = 0.042 N/mm
Shear strength of wall = F1= fvt A = 430.920 kN

Shear resistance due to horizontal bars


in both face jacketing with 4.75 mm dia
mesh with spacing of 100mm c/c
Shear resistance due to one face jacketing = Fvj = 112.082 kN/mstrip/face
Height of wall = h = 3.600 m
Shear strength of bars in jacketing = F2 = Fvj h = 403.495 kN

Dowel action due to vertical bars in


both face jacketing with 4.75 mm dia

iii. Retrofit design of walls :

Check for Wall X1:


Shear stress induced in wall:
Shear force in wall = Fv = 390.909 kN
Length of wall = L = 19.900 m
Thickness of wall = t = 350 mm
Length of openings = lo = 7.500 m
2
Area of wall = A = 4.340 m
2
Average shear stress in wall = fvi= Fv * A = 0.090 N/mm

Shear strength of the masonry wall as per in place shear test result:
2
Shear strength value from shear test = 0.136 N/mm
Allowable shear strength value
2
(taking 42% of test value) = fvt = 0.057 N/mm
Shear strength of wall = F1= fvt A = 247.901 kN

Dowel action of bar in vertical band :


{Ref, Miha Tomazevic, Earthquake resistant design of masonry
Nos of vertical band resisting shear = N = 16 nos.
Dia of vertical bar1 = d1 = 8
Nos of vertical bar1 in each band = n1 = 2 nos.
Dia of vertical bar2 = d2 = 4.75 nos.
Nos of vertical bar2 in each band = n2 = 1 mm
Allowable compressive Strength of the mortar
2
(embedding mortar or grout of band) = fc = 4 N/mm
2
Yield strength of steel = fy = 415 N/mm
2
Allowable stress in steel = fs = 230 N/mm
Horizontal shear force resisting capacity:
2
F2 = 1.25[ 0.806 N(n1 d1 + n2 d22 )√(fc fs)] = 73.617 kN

Shear resistance due to direct tension in the horizontal bar:

Nos of horizontal band = N = 3 nos.


2
Tensile capacity of each band = Ft = 33.997 N/mm
Horizontal shear resistance = F3 = N Ft = 101.992 kN

Shear resistance due to horizontal bars in one face jacketing with 4.75 mm dia mesh with
spacing of 300mm c/c:

Shear resistance due to one face jacketing = Fvj = 20.379 kN/mstrip/face


Height of wall = h = 3.000 m
Shear strength of bars in jacketing = F4 = Fvj h = 61.136 kN

Dowel action due to vertical bars in one face jacketing with 4.75 mm dia mesh with spacing
of 150mm c/c:
Dia of vertical bar = d = 4.75
Nos of vertical bars = n = 84 nos.
Allowable compressive Strength of the mortar
2
(embedding mortar or grout of band) = fc = 4 N/mm
2
Yield strength of steel = fy = 415 N/mm
2
Allowable stress in steel = fs = 230 N/mm
Horizontal shear force resisting capacity:
2
F2 = 1.25[ 0.806 (n d )√(fc fs)] = 57.917 kN

Check for total shear capacity of wall:

Total shear resistance = Ft = F1+ F2+ F3+ F4+F5 = 542.562 kN


2
Shear strength = fvr =F/A = 0.125 N/mm

Shear resisting capacity > induced shear , Hence safe in shear

Check for the diaphragm action due to connectivity in slab and wall:
The shear stress of wall and slab interface
2
(assumed shear strength value) = fvt = 0.057 N/mm
2
Shear strength of the wall after retrofitting = fv = 0.125 N/mm
As earthquake force can be higher than the design level earthquake, the interface must be
stronger than the wall for full load transfer from diaphragm to wall.
2
Remaining shear stress = fvi = fv - fvt = 0.068 N/mm
The bars going through the slab from vertical splint should have capacity to resist this shear
2
Shear strength of bar = fvs = 0.4 fy = 166 N/mm
No.of vertical bands = 16
No of bars 8mm dia. from inside = 2 nos.
Dia. of bars = d1 = 8 mm
Total no. of 8mm dia. Bar from inside = n1 = 32 nos.
Providing 8mm dia. bars of length 600mm @450mm c/c at the wall and slab interface at
outer face,
No of bars 8mm dia. from outside = n2 = 45 nos.
Dia. of bars = d1 = 8 nos.
2
Area of steel = Ast = 3870.44 mm
Resisting shear force = Fvr= 1.25 fvs Ast = 803.117 kN
length of wall = L = 19.900 m
Thickness of wall = t = 350 mm
