Loadbearing concrete wall panels

Loadbearing concrete wall panels

Loadbearing concrete wall panels

(OP)
Im wondering if anyone has a good reference or spreadsheet on the design of loadbearing tilt up wall panels.
Particularly interested in Australian literature.
I have " Guide to Tilt up Design and Construction".
        "AS 3850"
        "Design of Tilt-up concrete wall panels"

The last reference has design charts that look quite simple to use, however it is a discontinued publication.

Im more particularly interested in the panel in place under D.L and L.L (erection conditions are OK).

Thanks to all in advance.

Re "Design of Tilt-up concrete wall panels"
I've used the first edition from when it came out in '92, and still do.
The current edition refers to ACI318, chapter 14 for design of panels.

Thanks for reply.

Ive designed portal frames with non load bearing panels but never load bearing panels.

It looks like this publication is fairly simple to use with the design charts, so you just use the design charts at the back to obtain panel thickness and reinforcement then?
