A7 Horizontal bracing
Transfer of horizontal loads
into the columns of the
building
The horizontal loads according to DIN
EN 12812 are to be accommodated by
the building walls, columns or bracings.
SKYDECK is able to transfer these loads
into the building columns according to
Table A7.01 without requiring any addi-
tional bracing.
The prerequisite is that the building col-
umns can accommodate the horizontal
loads according to the table.
At the edge of the slab, corresponding
loads, e.g. from the stopend formwork
pressure, platforms or wind, must be
separately anchored.
With a rectangular column grid, the
largest column spacing is decisive.
Example
Slab thickness 30 cm, panel span 150
cm.
J permissible column grid without
J
bracing the SKYDECK: = 5.37 m (a).
J Horizontal load to be transferred: H =
J
4.92 kN.
This load must be verified by the struc-
tural engineer regarding the respective
column in the actual building condition.
