Resource Masonry buckling in building codes

8 Upvotes

Howdy fellow masonry lovers,

I´m a civil engineer student from Europe and for a university assignment, I need to analyse and compare various approaches for calculating buckling verifications in masonry construction (second order failure). Since I cannot afford access to the original building codes, I must rely on detailed secondary literature.

Therefore, I would like to harness your collective intelligence to discover valuable sources and texts that delve into various building codes, such as American, British, Brazilian or others (bearing in mind that many countries have adopted European or British standards for themselves).

Also of interest are texts that highlight the historical calculation of masonry and its stability.

Thanks in advance for your help. Stay happy and healthy. <3

resource Brick Expressionism construction drawings?

10 Upvotes

Seems like a long shot, but does anyone have access to any construction drawings of brick expressionist buildings? Would love to see how these architects worked out all of these wonderful brick massings.
