Design the formwork for a 12-ft-high reinforced concrete


Design the formwork for a 12-ft-high reinforced concrete wall. Concrete will be placed at a rate not to exceed 5 ft/h and will be internally vibrated. Temperature is expected to be 80°F. Use ¾-in. class I ply form for the sheathing and No. 2 grade Douglas fir-larch for the rest of the lumber. Use 2 × 4s for studs and doubled 2 × 6s for wales. Ties will have a capacity of 5000 lb (2-in.-wide wedges). For lateral bracing design, assume the wind to be 15 psf and use a guy wire (at 45° to the 10-ft height) that has a tensile capacity of 4400 lb.
