Strengthening of masonry infill wall panels in reinforced concrete structures using dual strengthening strategy of ferrocement and ECC overlays

Cogent Engineering
The strengthening of masonry infill wall panels (MIWPs) in reinforced concrete (RC) frame structures is of prime importance due to their failure in the in-plane and out-of-plane direction, as evidenced by past earthquakes.

Flexural Performance of Ambient‐Cured Metakaolin‐Stabilized Compressed Earth Brick Walls With Cement‐Soil Mortar Joints

Engineering Reports, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2025.
This study highlights a 79.17% improvement in the flexural strength of metakaolin‐stabilized compressed earth brick (CEB) walls with cement‐soil mortar joints, emphasizing their potential as sustainable, resilient materials for regions prone to lateral loads, with reduced environmental impact and enhanced thermal performance.

Stone products of the Roman municipium of Neviodunum, Pannonia (modern Drnovo, Slovenia)

Archaeometry, Volume 67, Issue 2, Page 284-312, April 2025.
Abstract The paper presents the lithologies used in the stone products of Neviodunum (modern Drnovo in Slovenia), a Roman municipium in south‐western Pannonia. For this purpose, 95 stone monuments were assessed. Petrographic and biostratigraphic analyses were carried out on 56 archaeological and 57 geological samples.

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.

The Effect of Masonry Infill Model Selection on the Seismic Response of Reinforced Concrete Frame Structures

AGG+
In many countries, reinforced concrete (RC) frames are widely utilized as the primary building structure. The infill is typically composed of traditional masonry (brick elements connected with mortar), commonly without isolation from the frame.
