This document contains an example problem from a Masonry Structures course. The example involves calculating stresses in a wall subjected to horizontal and vertical forces. It asks the student to: 1) Calculate normal and shear stresses at the bottom of the wall. 2) Determine the horizontal force needed for zero normal stress at point B. 3) Calculate the compressed length of the wall if the horizontal force is 500 kN. The example provides the wall dimensions, applied forces, bending moment and shear formulas to calculate the requested values.

Example 1

For the wall shown in figure 1, it is necessary to:

1. Calculate normal and shear stresses at the bottom of the wall,


2. Calculate the intensity of horizontal force so that the total normal stress at point B is equal to
zero,
3. Calculate the length of compressed zone of the wall if the horizontal force H is equal to 500
kN.

The thickness of the wall is d=20 cm. Ignore the wall's weight.
