Brick wall stress control

Post od serafimoff »

Hi,
I am a user of Tower 7 professional, and have a few questions about Brick wall stress control.
1. How the programe calculates the Msd, Vsd and Nsd, becouse it seems that there is a ratio that increases the N,V or M effects?
2. How it calculates The (sigma)Rd? It's probably by using NRd, but spcificly how?

I have a 100 years old house that has brick walls and wood floors, the house is on two levels. The seismic ratio ag/g=0.23! I must follow rules of Eurocode 1991-1;1996-1;1998-3.Pease, give me an idvice what is the proper way to model the structure, with shell (walls) elements or with frame(beam) elements?! The wall thickness is 60sm, for inside walls and outside walls with doors and windows! I will be very pleased if you have time and see my case!!
With Respect, Serafimoff
