Propagation principle of the balcony loading onto the cross and vertical wall in masonry structure were studied. A few computational models for the propagation of the balcony loads （including weight of railing and floor and active loading） were presented and analyzed herein by a FEM program, adopting a 14-noded rectangular element of 56 degree freedom. Concentrated forces and couples are chosen to represent loading of balcony. Extensive computations of the model were carried out and it finally led to the determination of axial force of both c...
