Numerical model to account for the influence of infill masonry on the RC structures behaviour [PDF]
, 2005 It is a common misconception considers that masonry infill walls in structural RC buildings can only increase the overall lateral load capacity, and, therefore, must always be considered beneficial to seismic performance.

POJEDNOSTAVLJENI PRISTUPI MODELIRANJU OKVIRA S ISPUNOM [PDF]
, 2014 In many seismic areas, reinforced-concrete frames are filled with masonry infill walls. The behavior of these structural composite systems are difficult to model, and existing regulations lack guidelines for their design.

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 781-803, March 2026.ABSTRACT Over recent decades, the collection of seismic data has improved the understanding of near‐fault ground motion effects, which involve both horizontal and vertical components. Among the most significant effects are fault‐normal directivity, which concentrates seismic energy into an intense, long‐period pulse, and fault‐parallel fling step ...

Numerical model of a masonry infilled RC frame
, 2021 The response of reinforced concrete frame structures with a masonry infill to seismic action can be represented by models of different levels of complexity such as: detailed and simplified micromodels or macromodels. Macromodels have the lowest requirement for the input of material properties and allow the shortest computational time without losing the

Multiparametric modeling of infill shear walls with additionally made openings
Structural Concrete, Volume 26, Issue 6, Page 8716-8740, December 2025.Abstract The paper deals with the implementation of additional openings in reinforced concrete infill shear walls from the point of view of structural analysis. In the introductory part, the current state of knowledge in the methods of analysis of this issue is discussed, and their advantages or shortcomings are pointed out.

Evaluation of infill strut properties based on in-plane cyclic tests
Građevinar, 2013 In the nonlinear analysis of masonry infilled RC frame structures, simple strut models are often adopted to represent the masonry infill, particularly in the case of extensive parametric numerical studies.

Buildings, 2020 Pilotis buildings have widely spread out in developed countries since World War II onwards. From the structural point of view, Pilotis RC frames exhibit substantial lack in ductility capacity and shear resistance localized at the first floor, since they ...

Seismic analyses of a R/C building: study of a retrofitting solution [PDF]
, 2000 The preliminary experimental results from the tests on a 4-storey R/C frame structure are presented and discussed. The full-scale model is representative of the common practice of 40~50 years ago in most south European countries.
