Masonry enclosure walls: lessons learnt from the recent Abruzzo Earthquake [PDF]

, 2010
This paper approaches the issue of performance requirements and construction criteria for masonry enclosure and infill walls. Vertical building enclosures in European countries include, very often, non-loadbearing masonry walls, using horizontally ...

Non-linear analysis of masonry infilled steel frame under in-plane loading using Multi Pier method

Case Studies in Construction Materials
In the event of an earthquake, the in-plane stiffness, strength, and energy absorption capacity of the lateral load-bearing system could be affected by the presence of masonry infill walls.

Influence of infill on the cyclic behaviour of traditional half-timbered walls [PDF]

, 2013
Half-timbered buildings represent an important historical heritage in many countries. They are diffused in various regions for different reasons, such as availability of materials, to lighten a structure, low cost and the strength they offer, and as a ...

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

, 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.

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

, 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 ...

SEISMIC EVALUATION OF RC FRAME WITH BRICK MASONRY INFILL WALLS

International Journal of Research in Engineering and Technology, 2015
Infill panels are widely used as partition walls as well as external walls of the building to fill the gap between RC frames. Nonstructural member may provide considerable stiffness to the building and hence may improve the performance of the RC building during ground motions.
