Influence of Masonry Infill Walls on the Seismic Assessment of Non-Seismically Designed RC Framed Structures

open access: yesBuildings, 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.

Influence of Different Types of Infill Walls on the Hysteretic Performance of Reinforced Concrete Frames

open access: yesBuildings, 2021
To study the influence of masonry infill walls on the hysteretic performance of reinforced concrete frames, a cyclic experiment was conducted for three two-story and two-span reinforced concrete frame structures, including one reinforced concrete frame ...

Seismic Resistance of Timber Frames with Mud and Stone Infill Walls in a Chinese Traditional Village Dwelling

open access: yesBuildings, 2021
Traditional Chinese wood residences consist of timber frames with masonry infill walls or other types of infill, representing valuable heritage. A field investigation of traditional village dwellings in northern China consisting of timber frames with mud

Development of Fragility Curves for Brick Infill Walls in Steel Frame Structures [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Rehabilitation in Civil Engineering, 2022
Brick infill walls are one of the most common types of nonstructural elements used for exterior enclosures as well as interior partitions in steel frame buildings. The recent earthquakes have shown that damage to masonry infill walls may cause danger for

In-Plane Cyclic Response of Separated Masonry Infill Walls Using Polymeric Materials at the Surrounding Steel Frames Interface Using 3D FE Analysis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Rehabilitation in Civil Engineering, 2023
Masonry infill walls are commonly used as partitions and exterior walls in many countries. Generally, the masonry wall is executed without any gap from the frame, which leads to the interaction between the structural frame and the infill wall ...

Investigation of Seismic Performance for Low-Rise RC Buildings with Different Patterns of Infill Walls

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
Evaluating the structural performance of low-rise RC buildings with infill walls is an essential issue in Thailand, as most infill walls were not designed for lateral load resistance.

Seismic vulnerability analysis of reinforced concrete frame with infill walls considering in-plane and out-of-plane interactions

open access: yesFracture and Structural Integrity, 2022
The seismic performance of a building hinges on the seismic capacity and damage features of the reinforced concrete (RC) frame with masonry infill walls. To reasonably evaluate the seismic performance and seismic economic loss of masonry infill walls, it

Macro Modeling of Column Removal in RC Frames with Consideration of Importance Factor and Infill Walls [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Rehabilitation in Civil Engineering, 2023
In this study, the effect of importance factor (IF) on RC frames with and without infill walls, in both with and without opening conditions, is evaluated against progressive collapse.

Effect of the Openings on the Seismic Response of an Infilled Reinforced Concrete Structure

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
The seismic behavior of the infill masonry infill walls has a significant impact on the global response of reinforced concrete frame structures. One factor influencing its behavior is the existence of openings in the walls, such as doors and windows ...
