Following the publication of our Design Guide for Masonry Reinforced by Bond Beams and Columns to Resist Lateral Load, Dr. Geoff Edgell, Principal Consultant for the construction industry at Ceram presented a 30-minute webinar on Tuesday 8th March 2011. The purpose of the webinar was to:
- Explain the background information to support the design provisions
- Discuss the supporting research and testing programmes
- Provide examples of case studies where designs based upon the system have been used
The free downloadable Design Guide:
- Is the result of a four-year research and test programme to evaluate reinforced, full-size walls strengthened against lateral load
- Provides guidance and recommendations for the design of masonry walls incorporating bond beams and columns
- Expands upon the guidance in BS 5628 and EC6 Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions during the presentation
