Explain effective height of walls.
Effective Height of a Wall:
- When there is Full Restraint at top and bottom, then effective height is equal to 0.75H.
- When there is Full Restraint at one end and only lateral restraint at the other end, then effective height is equal to 0.85H.
- When there is only lateral restraint without rotational restraint at both top and bottom, then effective height is equal to 1.00H.
- When there is full restraint at bottom and no restraint at the top, then effective height is equal to 1.50H.
- When there is no restraint at the top and only lateral strain at bottom, then effective height is equal to 2.00H.
Effective Height of a Column:
- If it is laterally supported, then effective height is equal to the actual height.
- If it is not laterally supported, then effective height is twice the actual height.
Effective Height of a Opening in Walls:
If the opening occurs in a wall such th....
