Masonry Design
The MWX+ program is used to verify the structural safety of individual walls. In these calculations, the transition to the global structural system is established via corresponding border conditions from the adjoining components (bending stiffness of walls underneath and above the considered wall, supporting conditions of floor slabs on the opposite side of the wall). In addition to individual walls, the user can perform calculations of structural systems that consist of basement walls, intermediate storey walls, and top storey walls.
Moreover, MWX+ allows the user to analyse bracing wall diaphragms loaded by diaphragm-related shear.
Performance characteristics
Das Feature erlaubt den Nachweis der Tragsicherheit von einzelnen Wänden. Der Übergang zum Gesamtsystem wird dabei über entsprechende Randbedingungen aus den anschließenden Bauteilen hergestellt (Biegesteifigkeiten von Wänden unter- und oberhalb der betrachteten Wand, wandabseitige Lagerungsbedingungen der Deckenplatten). Für die Berechnung können neben der Einzelwand die statischen Systeme von Unter-, Zwischen- und Obergeschosswänden gewählt werden. Darüber hinaus können aussteifende Wandscheiben unter Scheibenschubbeanspruchung nachgewiesen werden.
