<span style="background: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 115%;">For control of cracking, the strength of the steel
in the reinforcement has no influence on the amount of reinforcement needed,
only the area of the cross section. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="background: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 115%;">When the reinforcement
is assigned a structural role, the fact the steel is stronger, does not mean
necessarily that you reduce the amount of reinforcement in the same
proportions. </span><span style="background: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 115%;">Because
by the requirements of the minimum amount, in the vast majority of cases, steel
does not display even half of the resistance. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="background: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 115%;">It is the parameter of
steel in the masonry reinforcement which really improves the mechanical
performance in the wall is ductility, not resistance. </span><span style="background: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 115%;">For this reason, to
prevent cracking, moving forces with the reinforcement it is preferable that
the steel has a high percentage of deformation at failure (that is the
parameter which determines ductility) than high resistance.<span style="font-size: 10pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #333333; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The
coating with mortar of the masonry reinforcement is a fundamental requirement
to ensure the protection of the steel from corrosion. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #333333; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #333333; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Therefore, when it comes
to getting this benefit, the conditions of coating have different importance
according to the finishing of the masonry reinforcement. However, the coating
is also an essential requirement for the proper transmission of forces of
adhesion in the overlap areas and this is common for all the masonry
reinforcements with structural use, independently of the type of finish. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #333333; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #333333; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">In
order to achieve this provision, you must respect the minimum thickness of
coating, both upper and lower, as well as lateral. Side coating in the areas of
overlap is essential so that there is the transmission of efforts between the
piece of reinforcement and the adjoining one, this circumstance must be taken
into account when choosing the width of the reinforcement so that it is
appropriate to the thickness of the wall. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #333333; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #333333; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">If the reinforcement does not have a
specific design for the overlap, you must limit your width to allow the correct
covering along the reinforcement longitudinally.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><span style="font-size: small;">The Eurocode explicitly defines the minimum amount of
reinforcement needed to give ductility to the masonry and prevent cracking. In
this sense, it determines the vertical separation between reinforced rows will
not surpass 60cm and the area of steel will not be less than 0.03% of the area
of the wall. The measure is preventative, and given that it is explicitly
stated in the Eurocode it can help deal with the civil responsibility derived
from pathological processes produced by cracking in the walls. However this
measure by itself does not guarantee 100% of the absence of fissures. What is
really effective to avoid cracking is a good constructive design solution to
avoid risk situations.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

because it is compulsory for the products that are incorporated in the
construction of a building. Secondly because the CE marking, carried out within
the existing legal framework along with the implementation of the Eurocode are
the only quality assurance (of the State not the supplier). It is also the only
way of checking that incorporated products in walls have the same benefits
stated in calculations. There is no point calculating if there is no comparison
value for gauging.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

The <strong>reinforcement does not improve at all by the fact the wire is corrugated.</strong> The conditions for grip relating to transferring forces evenly through-out small-diameter bars, such as the type of masonry reinforcement depend more on the measure of mortar and not the masonry reinforcement.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />Grip provided by corrugated bars is only needed when the forces you may have are very large, this only occurs within very thick bars. In the case of the reinforcement a number is worth a thousand words, two bars of 4mm in diameter can transfer securely 10kN, following the required regulations.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />This value has been tested on smooth bars of reinforcement. Furthermore the calculation shows the real value of the force that is transferred across the reinforcement (that is met by the minimum quantity requirements) in worst case scenarios, is approximately half.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />Consequently the corrugated reinforcement makes no extra benefits of reinforcement that weren’t in the traditional reinforcement. It is important that the technique of reinforced concrete, capable of transferring large forces, use normal plain bars when there is a small diameter. What really improves the transmission of forces is the existence of a suitable cover of reinforcement in the overlap areas.</div>

The <strong><span style="color: #660000;">adhesion of the reinforcement</span></strong>, if you are using the truss-type, does not intervene with the transmission of<br />forces between the first and last node of the truss. The transmission of forces in these sections is performed<br />entirely through the diagonal wires, even without mortar, by virtue of their geometrical configuration, indeformable in their plane.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Where it is really essential for the adherence of transmission of forces between the ends of pieces of reinforcement where the truss ends. This is why the overlap needs, a length proportionate to the forces that are transmitted and adequate cover in the overlap area.<br />To transfer the maximum force that it can withstand equally in the reinforcement, a sufficient overlap length of 250mm is needed (this value must be verified by tests).<br />To achieve the adequate transfer of adhesion and forces in the overlap areas, the wires must be spaced when overlapping to a distance equal to their diameter.</div>

For <strong>control of cracking</strong>, the <strong>strength of the steel in the reinforcement has no influence </strong>on the amount of reinforcement needed, only the area of the crosssection.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When the <strong>reinforcement is assigned a structural role</strong>, the fact the steel is stronger, does not mean necessarily that you reduce the amount of reinforcement in the same proportions. Because by the requirements of the minimum amount, in the vast majority of cases, steel does not display even half of the resistance. It is the parameter of steel reinforcement which really improves the mechanical performance in the wall, on account of its ductility, not of the resistance. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For this reason, to prevent cracking and for the transmission of forces it is preferable that the steel has a high percentage of deformation at failure (that is the parameter which determines ductility) than high resistance.</div>

Having the same wire diameter should not be confused with having the same level of reinforcement. When comparing the different types of reinforcement for crack control the calculation for the amount is to do with the surface area of steel facing any vertical section of the wall.<br />
With truss-type reinforcement there are always three wires in contact the entire length, in contrast, in a ladder type you only have two.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
Therefore to meet the minimum requirements of reinforcement, comparing both types the truss type is needed less in the wall per square metre.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
Furthermore when the reinforcement is assigned a structural role to withstand lateral side actions the only acceptable geometric configuration is the truss-type, for being the only non-deformable one in its own plane.</div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">For seismic events, the reinforcement itself will improve the mechanical behaviour of the wall because of its ductile properties. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">However for the same reasons given previously, this cannot be assigned stability of the wall to the reinforcement itself. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">For the reinforcement to be calculated into seismic effects, it should be accompanied by other elements of retention, such as anchors to the pillars.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The reinforcement is not an element of retention, a wall with lots of reinforcement if it is not sufficiently connected to the structure may fall in its entirety. The masonry reinforcement does not provide stability itself. The reinforcement is there to provide ductility and therefore significantly reducing the risk of cracking. When assigning the reinforcement a mission to structurally support, it is imperative that the wall and support pillars and connected by anchors.</span></div>
