Seismic performance of masonry-infilled RC frames [PDF]
Urbanism. 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.

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.

Numerical models to simulate the seismic response of RC structures [PDF]
, 2006 Seismic analysis of RC structures requires realistic and simple analytical models. In this paper are presented two models proposed and implemented in the program PORANL, to represent the RC buildings behaviour under severe earthquake loading. The first

A non-linear masonry infill macro-model to represent the global behaviour of buildings under cyclic loading [PDF]
The presence of masonry infill walls in RC buildings is very common. However, and even today, in the design of new buildings and in the assessment of existing ones, these infill walls are usually considered as non-structural elements and their influence ...

Retrofitting masonry infill walls with textile reinforced mortar
, 2012 The vulnerability of unreinforced masonry walls (URM) under seismic events, causing huge loss of money and human lives, has revealed the enormous need for an efficient strengthening material. In this context, the present paper reports the development of a new reinforcing material for masonry walls based on braided fibrous structures.

Dynamic Characteristics of a Model and Prototype for 3D-RC Structure
Slovak Journal of Civil Engineering, 2016 Infill walls provide durable and economical partitions that have relatively excellent thermal and sound insulation with high fire resistance. Monolithic infilled walls are provided within RC structures without being analyzed as a combination of concrete ...
