Reinforced concrete walls: analysis and reinforcing

Armiranobetonski zidovi su vertikalni kruti konzolni nosači koji su vrlo učinkoviti prilikom prijenosa horizontalnih sila uzorkovanih vjetrom ili potresom na tlo. Zidovi se dijele na niske i visoke, te na pune zidove i zidove s otvorima. Prema obliku zidove možemo podijeliti na zidove I, C, T i L presjeka. Armiranobetonski zidovi se prema razredu duktilnosti dijele na zidove srednje i visoke duktilnosti. U radu su prikazani načini armiranja prema različitim normama, odnosno, uspoređene su hrvatske i novozelandske norme. Opisani su načini spojeva zidova, te povezivanje armiranobetonskih zidova s armiranobetonskim pločama i gredama. Za odabrani primjer armiranobetonskog zida izrađen je proračun potrebne armature te iskaz armature.Reinforced concrete walls are vertical rigid cantilever girders that are very effective in transmitting horizontal forces sampled by wind or earthquake to the ground. The walls are divided into low and high, and into solid walls and walls with openings. According to the shape of the walls can be divided into walls of I, C, T and L cross sections. Reinforced concrete walls are divided into walls of medium and high ductility according to the ductility class. The paper presents the methods of reinforcement according to different norms, Croatian and New Zealand norms are compared. Ways of joining walls, and connecting reinforced concrete walls with reinforced concrete slabs and beams are described. For the selected example of a reinforced concrete wall, a calculation of the required reinforcement and a statement of reinforcement were made
