Failure Mechanism of Confined Masonry Wall under Pushover Load [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences
The confined masonry wall has various performances and failure mechanisms under earthquake excitation. This excitation, which is applied to the specimen in laboratory tests, can be simplified by conducting pushover loading.

Numerical modeling of reinforced masonry walls under lateral loading at the component level response as opposed to system level response

Ain Shams Engineering Journal, 2019
Many experimental and analytical investigations were carried out on fully-grouted reinforced masonry shear walls types (rectangular, flanged or end-confined) to investigate their behavior under lateral loads.

Feasibility of confined masonry design in Azores [PDF]

, 2008
In the recent years, small size buildings built with resistant confined masonry demonstrated an acceptable behaviour due to earthquakes actions. On the other hand, many experimental studies have been corroborating these findings. As proved in recent work,

Experimental and Analytical Study of Masonry Infill Reinforced Concrete Frames Retrofitted with Steel Braces [PDF]

, 2004
In the present work a seismic retrofitting technique is proposed for masonry infilled reinforced concrete frames based on the replacement of infill panels by K-bracing with vertical shear link.

Study on the Influence of Slope Static Load on Shallow Lining Support Structure

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
On the basis of the background of the shallow‐buried main adit supported by stone lining, the mechanical model of the supporting structure is constructed, and the stability of the supporting structure is analyzed by using the methods of field investigation, theoretical analysis, and numerical simulation.

Investigating the Environmental Impact of Additive Construction: A Systematic Analysis of the Life Cycle Assessment Studies

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Additive Manufacturing (AM) has been identified as a potential catalyst for a paradigm shift within the construction industry, due to its capacity to enhance sustainability, reduce waste, and augment design flexibility. This study presents a systematic literature review (SLR) that explores the application of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) in ...

Parametric Study of Orthotropic Masonry Walls under Static and Dynamic Loading

Tehnički Glasnik
The paper presents a parametric study of unreinforced and confined masonry walls with orthotropic properties under in-plane static and dynamic loading. A previously developed FEM model was extended to simulate the behaviour of the orthotropic masonry and

Masonry shear walls subjected to cyclic loading: influence of confinement and horizontal reinforcement [PDF]

, 2007
The behavior of masonry shear walls is fundamental in the design of masonry buildings subjected to different actions, namely of seismic nature. The usage of unreinforced, confined or reinforced masonry is currently subjected to a strong debate in ...

Early use of the reinforced concrete in the architecture of the Historicism in Austria–Hungary

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The study examines the early incorporation of reinforced concrete in the architecture of Historicism in Austria–Hungary. Spanning the late 19th to early 20th centuries, the research illuminates the period's stylistic pluralism and the transformative impact of reinforced concrete.
