On the Influence of Masonry Infills in Concrete Buildings [PDF]
Civil-Comp Proceedings, 2010 The stresses induced in a structure by a seismic action have a low probability of occurrence and their magnitude is such that the structure is forced beyond the ultimate limit state. The effective standards in Portugal, and the ones that will be effective shortly, consider the possibility of a seismic action in all the territory, fact that has been ...

Masonry infills and earthquakes
, 2009 Masonry infills are building elements with high cost that often suffer cracking due to movement of the supports and thermohygral behaviour, with serious consequences in comfort and efficiency, particularly in the case of enclosure walls. The new seismic code in Europe (Eurocode 8) clearly defines the structural designer as responsible for the safety of

Discrete Element Modeling of Masonry-Infilled Frames [PDF]
, 2016 In this chapter, the different modeling strategies for simulating the behavior of masonry infilled frames are investigated. Particular emphasis is given on the suitability of the Discrete Element Method (DEM) to accurately represent the mechanical behavior, strength and ductility of concrete and brickwork masonry infilled frames.

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 41, Issue 2, Page 1565-1588, May 2025.On February 6, 2023, two earthquakes (Mw 7.8 and 7.5) occurred in Turkey. Notably, 10 provinces in Turkey and several others in Syria were subjected to severe ground shaking, resulting in a high number of casualties following the total and partial collapse of many reinforced concrete buildings.

Out-of-plane behavior of masonry infill walls [PDF]
, 2015 In order to investigate the out-of-plane behaviour of masonry infill walls, quasi-static testing was performed on a masonry infill walls built inside a reinforced concrete frame by means of an airbag system to apply the uniform out-of-plane load to each ...
