Design Requirements

Conformance of Structural Capacity (Steel Reinforcement Designs)

The design analysis presented by Genivar for walls using the product provides a level of performance equivalent to that required by applicable provisions in Part 4 and/or Part 9 of Division B of the NBC 2015. The design analysis is summarized in Tables 4.2.1.1 to 4.2.1.3. The tables provide steel reinforcement specifications for a number of different wall and lintel applications based on specific structural loads. The design assumptions are indicated below each table.
