from ACI530 section 1.8
Em= 700 f'm for clay masonry.
where can i get the value for f'm?

When was the last time you drove down the highway without seeing a commercial truck hauling goods?

RE: elastic modulus for clay masonry
It's dependent on the type of mortar and the net area compressive strength of the masonry unit alone.
RE: elastic modulus for clay masonry
i think it is too high.
is there another table for value?
RE: elastic modulus for clay masonry
If you do not not agree with the with the ACI 530 table values, where else do you get current accurately research values for the f'm?
I have served on the MSJC for many years and always thought the position was quite conservative. You will have to back some old research to find accurately justified differences that you can hang your hat and license on.
I am sure you can find a different value somewhere, but is it supported?

Although a separate issue, this has happened to an even more dramatic extent with Concrete Masonry.
I am not talking US code values, but I would think the progress would be similar to CSA & AS/NZS codes.

So...the value in 530 is reasonable.
