Seismic Capacity Assessment of Confined Brick Masonry Building: An Experimental Approach
Shock and Vibration, 2018 Brick masonry is widely used for building construction throughout the world. However, unreinforced brick masonry buildings performed poorly in the 2005 Kashmir earthquake, in Pakistan, resulting in a decline in the use of brick masonry.

Numerical Modeling Approaches of FRCMs/SRG Confined Masonry Columns
Frontiers in Built Environment, 2019 The Fabric Reinforced Cementitious Matrices (FRCMs) and Steel Reinforced Grout (SRG) are a promising strengthening solution for existing masonry since inorganic matrix is considerably compatible with historical substrates. The present paper is focused on

Buildings, 2023 This paper examines how the decision to include (or exclude) masonry infill walls in the modelling of non-seismically designed RC framed structures can affect the results of the EC8-3 seismic assessment process.

Modern masonry structures and earthquakes : reinforced or unreinforced? [PDF]
, 2013 The evolution of structural masonry is briefly reviewed, from old thrust line behavior to modern global behavior using shear walls. For modern structural masonry, the use of unreinforced, confined and reinforced masonry is addressed in seismic areas.

REPAIR AND RECONSTRUCTION FOR URBAN COMMONING: The Making of the Liberated Spaces in Naples
International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.Abstract Commoning requires repair. Where capitalist logics of accumulation, enclosure and exclusion produce abandoned space through the city, urban commoners remake that space to serve the needs of inhabitants. Without hiding the paradoxes and risks of repair, based on years‐long ethnography in the Liberated Spaces in Naples, Italy, we demonstrate how

Numerical Strategy for Column Strengthened with FRCM/SRG System
Buildings, 2022 The use of fabric-reinforced cementitious mortar (FRCM) or steel-reinforced grout (SRG) is now recognized to be effective in enhancing the axial capacity of masonry columns when confinement is achieved.

Field Theory and Colonialism: Indirect Colonial Situation as a Social Field in Egypt (1882–1922)
Sociology Lens, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper argues that Egypt under British rule (1882–1922) constituted a field of power in which the local state of Egypt and the British administration competed to dominate three key subfields to ensure control over a contested territory: the modern courts system, policing, and agricultural production.

Seismic response of stone masonry building with wooden band
Structural Mechanics of Engineering Constructions and Buildings, 2020 Most stone-masonry structures were built at a time when seismic risk was not considered in their design. Recent moderate to strong earthquakes have confirmed the vulnerability of heritage buildings, especially those constructed with unreinforced-masonry ...
