Testing of Damaged Single-Bay Reinforced Concrete Frames Strengthened with Masonry Infill Walls
Despite achieving consensus and having current knowledge on the behaviour and contribution of masonry infill walls, there remain unresolved issues regarding their nonlinear behaviour as a method for strengthening existing reinforced concrete (RC) frames ...

The effect of masonry infill walls on the reinforced concrete frames behavior under lateral load [PDF]
The reinforced concrete structures with masonry infill walls are widely used to construct buildings in Algeria, as in many parts of the world. According to earthquake analysis, this type of construction can undergo serious damage under seismic load.

Effect of Masonry Infill Constitutive Law on the Global Response of Infilled RC Buildings
Masonry-infilled reinforced concrete frames represent a very common construction typology across the Mediterranean countries. The presence of infills substantially modifies the global seismic performances of buildings in terms of strength, stiffness, and

Behavior of masonry strengthened infilled reinforced concrete frames under in-plane load
Experimental tests have been carried out to study the behavior of different single story frames infilled with brick masonry under the in-plane lateral load influence. Three phases of frames were tested.

Retrofitting of Infilled Frame in Reinforced Concrete Structure
This research work aims to compare the seismic performance (in terms of lateral load strength, stiffness, ductility, response modification factor and performance levels) of full scale infilled frames before and after retrofitting. To evaluate the seismic
