REINFORCED MASONRY ENGINEERING HANDBOOK

In 1970, James Amrhein recognized that a comprehensive reinforced engineering design handbook was needed which would encompass the coefficients, tables, charts and design data required for the design of reinforced masonry structures. Mr. Amrhein tried to fulfill these requirements with the first edition of this publication. Since then, subsequent editions have been improved and expanded to comply with applicable editions of the Uniform Building Code and International Building Code keeping pace with the growth of reinforced masonry engineering.

The authors would like this book to be as useful as possible to designers of reinforced masonry in eliminating repetitious and routine calculations. This publication will increase the understanding and reduce the time required for masonry design.

The detail and design requirements included in this book are based upon the 2006 edition of the International Building Code published by the International Code Council, and ASCE/SEI 7-05, Minimum Loads for Buildings and Other Structures published by the American Society of Civil Engineers. Also included in this edition is information and design tables based on the code reference document, ACI 530/ASCE 5/TMS 402 Building Code Requirements for Masonry Structures.
