Stone Cladding Engineering Methodologies

This volume introduces new methodologies for designing dimension stone in façade engineering, focusing on structural design and stonemasonry excellence. It provides formulas for calculating cladding actions, particularly under seismic forces, and includes a general methodology for non-structural elements. Additionally, it presents minimum slab thickness formulas and detailed calculation examples for anchorage engineering problems using the Load and Resistance Factor Design Format.

Stone Cladding Engineering

This volume presents new methodologies for the design of dimension stone based on
the concepts of structural design while preserving the excellence of stonemasonry
practice in façade engineering. Straightforward formulae are provided for computing
action on cladding, with special emphasis on the effect of seismic forces, including an
extensive general methodology applied to non-structural elements. Based on the Load
and Resistance Factor Design Format (LRDF), minimum slab thickness formulae are
presented that take into consideration stress concentrations analysis based on the Fi-
nite Element Method (FEM) for the most commonly used modern anchorage systems.
Calculation examples allow designers to solve several anchorage engineering problems
in a detailed and objective manner, underlining the key parameters. The design of the
Rui de Sousa Camposinhos
anchorage metal parts, either in stainless steel or aluminum, is also presented.
