Tilt Panel Point load

[civeng80]

I’m designing some tilt up wall panels using design charts (recommended practice design of tilt up concrete wall panels by concrete institute of Australia). The wall panel is shown on the diagram.
The panel is not supported by a footing along its whole length because of protruding pads from the neighbouring building (the client owns the neighbouring building also).
My question is would the load distribution at panel mid height from the point load be either AC or just BC (on the diagram). I’ve been debating this and my feeling is that it is AC. But I’m up to any comments on this.

Hi Hokie66

Yes the bending moment is traverse to the plane of the wall and its the moment due to the load eccentricity acting on the effective width of the panel.

As far as I can see the charts are only good for downward (DL & LL) case.

Have you come across this publication ?

No, but I haven't done any load-bearing tilt-up in recent times.
