Infill masonry: simple analytical methods for seismic design [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The latest earthquake codes in Europe require the safety assessment of no-structural elements (parapets, masonry wall’s veneer, infill walls, etc.), as their collapse entails risks for people or for the main structure stability.

The use of FRPs in seismic repair and retrofit: experimental verification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The application of FRPs in the seismic repair and retrofit of structures is addressed. The results from a few tests on full-scale structures, repaired and/or retrofitted with composites, performed at the ELSA laboratory are presented and ...

Analytical modelling of masonry-infilled steel frames

open access: yesTehnicki vjesnik - Technical Gazette, 2016
Masonry itself is a composite heterogeneous material whose structural behaviour is strongly affected by many influencing parameters with a wide range of possible values, construction procedures as well as care methods taken afterwards. When the masonry panel is added into the surrounding frame the complex interactive frame-infill system is established ...

In-plane and out-of plane experimental characterization of rc masonry infilled frames [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Seismic investigations of typical south European masonry infilled frames were performed by testing two reduced scale specimens: one in the in-plane direction and another in the out-ofplane direction.

New Zealand contributions to the global earthquake model’s earthquake consequences database (GEMECD) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The Global Earthquake Model’s (GEM) Earthquake Consequences Database (GEMECD) aims to develop, for the first time, a standardised framework for collecting and collating geocoded consequence data induced by primary and secondary seismic hazards to ...

A brief overview on the retrofitting possibilities of masonry infill walls [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This work presents a brief review on the seismic behavior on non-loadbearing masonry walls used as masonry infills. O Some examples of inefficient performance are shown based on information available of recent earthquakes.

Seismic performance of masonry-infilled RC frames

open access: yesUrbanism. Arhitectura. Constructii, 2016
The masonry infill of RC frames structures is generally considered as non-structural. The design of the concrete frames is often made by ignoring the influence of the masonry infill, which is only accounted for its mass. The experience on buildings submitted to earthquakes shows that masonry infill walls completely change the behaviour of bare frames ...

An overview on the seismic behaviour of timber frame structures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Traditional timber frame walls are an important structural element of many buildings and are usually composed of vertical posts and horizontal beams with bracing diagonal elements.
