Seismic Resilience Enhancement of a Typical Infilled RC Frame Residential Building with Fiber Reinforced Polymer Material: A Case Study in Kabul City, Afghanistan [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Rehabilitation in Civil Engineering
Seismic assessment and retrofitting of existing non-engineered buildings in Afghanistan remain significant challenges. This study evaluates the effectiveness of Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) in retrofitting of a typical infilled reinforced concrete (RC)

POJEDNOSTAVLJENI PRISTUPI MODELIRANJU OKVIRA S ISPUNOM [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Experimental Evaluation of Prototype Seismic Retrofits for Precast Concrete Hollow‐Core Floors

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 1, February 2026.
Existing hollow‐core floors are vulnerable to nonductile failure and potential collapse under earthquake loading. This study presents the development and experimental evaluation of novel comprehensive seismic retrofits for hollow‐core floors. These retrofits include a strongback‐type retrofit that provides an alternative gravity load path through steel

Prediction of the Seismic Response of Multi-Storey Multi-Bay Masonry Infilled Frames Using Artificial Neural Networks and a Bilinear Approximation

open access: yesBuildings, 2019
In order to test the reliability of neural networks for the prediction of the behaviour of multi-storey multi-bay infilled frames, neural network processing was done on an experimental database of one-storey one-bay reinforced-concrete (RC) frames with ...

EVALUATION OF FNP FOR RC FRAME WITH BRICK INFILL

open access: yesInternational Journal of Research in Engineering and Technology, 2015
The RC multistoryedframe buildings are commonly built with brick masonry as infill walls.Window and entryway openings are unavoidable piece of the infill dividers. The vicinity of openings in infill dividers fundamentally lessens the parallel quality and solidness of RC casings.

Robustness assessment of reinforced concrete structures for different failure scenarios

open access: yesStructural Concrete, Volume 27, Issue 1, Page 279-313, February 2026.
Abstract This study describes the robustness assessment of 3D reinforced concrete structures analyzing the response of the 2D frames in different design configurations and failure scenarios. The structures are characterized by both frames with wide beams and seismic‐resistant frames with deep beams.

Modeling of interactions between RC columns and masonry infill in buildings with a column‐sway mechanism

open access: yesJapan Architectural Review, 2018
This study proposes a new analytical model to evaluate interactions between reinforced concrete (RC) columns and masonry infill. An infill is replaced by a diagonal strut and its width is defined by column/infill contact length.

Cyclic behavior of braced concrete frames: Experimental investigation and numerical simulation

open access: yesHBRC Journal, 2017
RC shear walls have been widely used as the main lateral-load resisting system in medium and high-rise buildings because of their inherent large lateral stiffness and load resistance.

Seismic Performance and Finite Element Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Frames Considering a Masonry-Infilled Wall

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2022
This study investigated the seismic performance of a 1/3 scale, three-story, and three-span RC frame subjected to static cyclic lateral loading. The failure process and mode were analyzed using the digital image correlation (DIC) method.
