WHY YOU & YOUR EMPLOYEES SHOULD ATTEND THIS SEMINAR
The Examples of Concrete Structural Design to NZS 3101 (known as the Concrete NZ “Red Book”) provide worked examples demonstrating how compliance with the NZ Concrete Design Standard, NZS3101, can be achieved. The Red Book contains a comprehensive set of model calculations covering common concrete elements and structure types.

The recently released Amendment 3 (A3) to NZS 3101:2006 involved considerable changes to the provisions for designing reinforced concrete walls. Consequently Section B3 of the Red Book, covering wall design, has been revised to comply with the updated standard. B3 covers the design of two wall systems, a coupled wall and a flanged cantilever wall. The calculations are presented in considerable detail, with an emphasis on illustrating the process in a way that can be applied to structures more (or less) complex than the example chosen.

This seminar presents the worked example of Section B3. The seminar will describe the design of the walls of a 10-storey reinforced concrete building, with major steps in the design process thoroughly explained.

As well as the overarching design process, the changes and implications of Amendment 3 to NZS3101 for the design of walls are explained and their background detailed. This will include:

• New minimum reinforcement requirements
• New transverse reinforcement requirements
• Axial load and slenderness limits

Additionally, the application of key requirements of NZS1170.5 for design of a reinforced concrete wall building will be discussed.
