Initial data file:
Example 16 СП 2012.SAV
report – ComeIn 16 Nasonov.doc.
Initial data:
lo = 1,5 m | Cantilever overhang length |
a1 = 500 mm | Length of the bearing part |
b = 640 mm | Brick wall thickness |
q = 5 kN/m | Uniformly distributed load on the beam |
Q = 7,5 kN | Beam support reaction |
Brick grade | M150 |
Mortar grade | M50 |
KAMIN initial data:
Importance factor γn = 1
Age of masonry - up to a year
Working life is 25 years
Stone/brick - Molded clay brick
Stone/brick grade - 150
Mortar - regular cement with mineral plasticizers
Mortar grade - 50
Support design:
Steel beam |
Wide flange I-beam STO ASChM 20-93 – 60W1 |
Support conditions:
Cantilever without distribution packing plates L = 1.5 m |
B = 640 mm |

Manual |
7,5/39,0 = 0,192 |
KAMIN |
0,185 |
Deviation, % |
3,8 % |
Comment: The difference in the results of the calculation is related to the fact that the self-weight of beams is always taken into account in KAMIN and only single beams are considered.
