Shake-table tests of large-scale shear wall and infilled frame models [PDF]
Three different types of wall construction scale models were tested dynamically to ultimate failure by subjecting each of them to a sequence of simulated earthquakes of progressively increasing magnitudes on a 5 m×5 m shaking table in order to evaluate ...

Seismic performance of four-storey masonry infilled reinforced concrete frame building
Masonry infilled reinforced concrete frames are a structural system commonly used for low-to-mid-rise buildings. Generally, this type of structure is modelled as an open frame neglecting the strength and stiffness contribution of the masonry infilled ...

Finite Element Micro-Modeling of Infilled Frames
In this paper, a realistic criterion is proposed to describe the frame-infill separation, in order to better simulate the complicated behavior of infilled frames under lateral loads.

Study on Seismic Performance of RC Frame Structures Considering the Effect of Infilled Walls
This paper studies the impact of half-height infilled walls on the failure modes of frame columns through quasi-static tests of both frame models and half-height infilled wall frame models.

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

Strengthening of RC Frames With Infill Walls Using High Strength Lightweight Concrete Panels
This study proposed a practical seismic retrofit method for RC frames. For this purpose, a quasi-static loading was applied to 8 RC frames in finite element analysis software, Abaqus, and frames were pushed 45 mm laterally. High-strength fiber-reinforced

Masonry infilled frames – contemporary structural concepts
Infilled frames were the focus of numerous experimental tests which have been executed to investigate the seismic behaviour of these systems, but the task remains challenging due to significantly pronounced nonlinear structural behaviour. The infill inevitably changes the “common” and well-known structural behaviour of bare steel and RC frames into a ...

Influence of Infill Wall Configuration on Failure Modes of RC Frames
An improper configuration of masonry infill walls in RC frame may lead to short column effect on the columns, which is harmful to the seismic behavior of the structure.

Experimental assessment and retrofit of full-scale models of existing RC frames [PDF]
PSD tests on two full-scale models of existing non-seismic resisting RC frame structures are described. The testing program covered several aspects, namely assessment of seismic performance of existing frames without and with infill panels ...
