Behaviour of Reinforced Concrete Frames with Central Opening Masonry Infill under Lateral Reversed Cyclic Loading.

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2019
This paper will describe the seismic behaviour of masonry infilled RC frame with a central opening structure under reversed cyclic lateral loading. To achieve the purpose of this study, four 1/4-scale single story and single bay RC frame specimens were ...

Influence of Infill Wall Configuration on Failure Modes of RC Frames

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2018
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.

Effects of Single and Multi Openings in Brick Infills on the Seismic Response of Infilled RC Frames

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
Many researchers have performed a lot of studies of the seismic behavior reinforced concrete (RC) frame with masonry infill. They found that masonry infill affects the lateral strength, stiffness and ductility performance of the RC frame structures ...

Numerical analysis of reinforced concrete frame buildings with decoupled infill walls [PDF]

open access: yesGrađevinski Materijali i Konstrukcije, 2020
Reinforced concrete (RC) buildings with masonry infill walls are widely used in many countries all over the world. Although infills are considered as non-structural elements, they significantly change dynamic characteristics of RC frame structures during

Nonlinear Response‐History Analyses of Masonry and Mixed Structures With HybriDFEM

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The hybrid discrete‐finite element (HybriDFEM) method, previously developed to perform static and modal analysis in discrete and coupled discrete‐finite element models, is extended to nonlinear response‐history analyses. The equations of motion for the HybriDFEM model are solved through various numerical time‐integration schemes, both explicit

Influence of Masonry Infill Wall Position and Openings in the Seismic Response of Reinforced Concrete Frames

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
It is now widely recognized that the masonry infill frame used in reinforced concrete structures (RC) greatly enhances both the rigidity and strength of the surrounding frame.

Experimental assessment and retrofit of full-scale models of existing RC frames [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
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 ...
