Design of reinforced concrete walls casted in place for the maximum normal stress of compression

Abstract

It is important to evaluate which designing models are safe and appropriate to structural analysis of buildings constructed in Concrete Wall system. In this work it is evaluated, through comparison of maximum normal stress of compression, a simple numerical model, which represents the walls with frame elements, with another much more robust and refined, which represents the walls with shells elements. The designing of the normal stress of compression it is done for both cases, based on NBR 16055, to conclude if the wall thickness initially adopted, it is enough or not.

Study of the interaction of concrete walls with the foundation structure

“…Testoni and Correa (2016) highlight that the study of soil-structure interaction in buildings with concrete walls is a little explored topic in the technical literature that deserves the attention of researchers and designers of this type of structure. In order to elucidate any questions regarding the exposed procedure, Braguim and Bittencourt (2014) present a case study, where, by comparing the maximum normal compression stress, a numerical model in MEF and another in MPT was made for a 15-floor building 15 floors with concrete walls. The results show differences of less than 5% in the normal tension values in the walls, thus validating the simplified model in question.…”

Análise de desempenho térmico das vedações de concreto monolítico em edificações habitacionais na cidade de Maringá-PR

“…passou a ser usada em larga escala para solucionar o déficit habitacional do Brasil (BRAGUIM;BITTENCOURT, 2014). Por ser um sistema construtivo relativamente novo na construção civil, alguns estudos passaram a focar no comportamento térmico desse material a exemplode Didoné, Milani e Bertocini (2016) , que avaliaram o desempenho térmico das as edificações construídas de parede monolíticas de concreto nas zonas bioclimáticas 6 e 8.…”
