Edge beam on precast load bearing wall
Edge beam on precast load bearing wall
(OP)
Is it a good design practice to have edge reinforced concrete beam (say 900mm to 1000mm wide) supported on 150mm to 200mm thick precast load bearing wall running parallel to the beam? I mean the beam would be supported by the wall (like an inverted L shape) eccentrically on one side.
How would you detail the reinforcement so that load from the beam can be carried to the wall?

Hence the main rebar seems to be the transversal, atop, but I would detail it as a tie or beam, top and bottom plus stirrups.
Then any flexural effect passed to the wall needs be met in the precast part.
