Analysis of confined masonry with Strut and Tie models [PDF]
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2020 Strut & Tie (S-T) models are used quite commonly for the analysis of reinforced concrete structures and in the calculation of masonry structures. Creating the S-T model of the confined masonry is slightly different from models of reinforced concrete or ...

Masonry Columns Confined by Steel Fiber Composite Wraps [PDF]
Materials, 2011 The application of steel fiber reinforced polymer (SRP) as a means of increasing the capacity of masonry columns is investigated in this study. The behavior of 23 solid-brick specimens that are externally wrapped by SRP sheets in low volumetric ratios is presented. The specimens are subjected to axial monotonic load until failure occurs.

Investigating the confinement effects on masonry behavior based on friction interface [PDF]
Scientific ReportsAs a material masonry is anisotropic in nature as it is constituted of various components that differ each other in many ways. Though, the ideas of modeling of concrete are also valid for masonry, still there are difficulties in determining the exact ...

Horizontal Stiffness of Confined Masonry Walls
Inżynieria MineralnaThis paper focuses on confined masonry walls. Confined walls are very popular in the seismic regions and are used as the prevention of excessive cracking, displacement and a loss of structural integrity. In terms of structural engineering, confined walls, similarly to walls in conventional buildings with conventional load - bearing wall structure, can ...
