Design of RC Parapet Wall
Design of RC Parapet Wall
(OP)
Greeting All (again ^^)
What do you take into account when you design RC Parapet wall? and how exactly do you design it? Some of my friends told me the design is just like a design of deep beam. Will that be correct?
Thank you.

I like to debate structural engineering theory -- a lot. If I challenge you on something, know that I'm doing so because I respect your opinion enough to either change it or adopt it.

Please find attached the image for the parapet wall. For this project, there will be a beam under the parapet wall and yes, some of the area of the parapet wall will be supported by columns, but some will also be supported by the beams. The height of the parapet is approximately 1.0m -1.2m high. The architect would like to have the parapet to be 230mm in thickness also. So it will be like a deep beam now, right?
Thanks.
