What is Shear Strength in Post-Tensioned Masonry about?
This document discusses shear resistance of masonry walls and how Eurocode 6 approaches this issue. It notes that while sliding shear failure is assumed by Eurocode 6, in reality diagonal tension shear failure predominates for masonry walls under seismic loads. Laboratory test results are analyzed showing that Eurocode 6 calculations do not agree with actual masonry wall resistance for diagonal tension shear failure. Considering diagonal tension shear failure and masonry tensile strength provides more reali
