STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Wall Thickness = ((4*Concentrated Load on Wall)/(Modulus of Elasticity of Wall Material*Deflection of Wall))*((Height of the Wall/Length of Wall)^3+0.75*(Height of the Wall/Length of Wall))
t = ((4*P)/(E*δ))*((H/L)^3+0.75*(H/L))
This formula uses 6 Variables

Variables Used

Wall Thickness - (Measured in Meter) - Wall Thickness is the distance between the inner and outer surfaces of a hollow object or structure. It measures the thickness of the material comprising the walls.
Concentrated Load on Wall - (Measured in Newton) - Concentrated Load on Wall is a structural load that acts on a small, localized area of a structure i.e. wall here.
Modulus of Elasticity of Wall Material - (Measured in Pascal) - The Modulus of Elasticity of Wall Material is a quantity that measures an object or substance's resistance to being deformed elastically when a stress is applied to it.
Deflection of Wall - (Measured in Meter) - The Deflection of Wall is the degree to which a structural element is displaced under a load (due to its deformation).
Height of the Wall - (Measured in Meter) - Height of the Wall can be described as the height of the member(wall).
Length of Wall - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Wall is the measurement of a wall from one end to another. It is the larger of the two or the highest of three dimensions of geometrical shapes or objects.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Concentrated Load on Wall: 516.51 Kilonewton --> 516510 Newton (Check conversion here)
Modulus of Elasticity of Wall Material: 20 Megapascal --> 20000000 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Deflection of Wall: 0.172 Meter --> 0.172 Meter No Conversion Required
Height of the Wall: 15 Meter --> 15 Meter No Conversion Required
Length of Wall: 25 Meter --> 25 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

t = ((4*P)/(E*δ))*((H/L)^3+0.75*(H/L)) --> ((4*516510)/(20000000*0.172))*((15/25)^3+0.75*(15/25))

Evaluating ... ...

t = 0.399994953488372

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.399994953488372 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.399994953488372 ≈ 0.399995 Meter <-- Wall Thickness

What is meant by Deflection?

Deflection can be defined as the degree to which a structural element is displaced under a load (due to its deformation).

Define Concentrated Load & Uniform Lateral Load?

The Concentrated Load is the load acting on a very small area of the structure's surface, the exact opposite of a distributed load.
The Lateral Loads are defined as the live loads whose main component is a horizontal force acting on the structure or member.
