Strengthening masonry infill walls with reinforced plaster
Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Structures and Buildings, 2010One technique for strengthening masonry infill walls against seismic lateral forces permitted by the Turkish Seismic Code is to add a plaster layer with mesh reinforcement to one face of the wall. The study described in this paper was performed to test and analyse the effectiveness of this technique for lateral loads.

Perspectives and Approaches for the Out-of-Plane Testing of Masonry Infill Walls
Experimental Techniques, 2020It is widely accepted that further and more in-depth research is required on the out-of-plane seismic response of masonry infill walls to increase knowledge regarding this particular behaviour and to develop effective strengthening strategies for preventing their collapse.

Experimental tests on strengthening strategies for masonry infill walls: A literature review
Construction and Building Materials, 2020Abstract The masonry infill walls’ seismic behaviour is being characterized by extensive damages and out-of-plane (OOP) collapses due to combined in-plane and OOP loading demands. Several efforts are being made to develop efficient strengthening strategies to reduce their seismic vulnerability and in particular to prevent the panels’ collapse.

Seismic evaluation of reinforced concrete structures infilled with masonry infill walls
Asian Journal of Civil Engineering, 2019The current research work aims to investigate the seismic performance of the reinforced concrete structures fully, as well as, partially infilled with masonry infill (MI) walls. For that, a numerical study of three groups of two-dimensional framed structure has been conducted under dynamic time–history analysis. The three building groups are classified

Modal identification of infill masonry walls with different characteristics
Engineering Structures, 2017A significant number of structural damages observed in reinforced concrete (RC) structures that occurred in regions affected by earthquakes are due to the presence of the infill masonry walls (IMW). Survey of the structural damages caused by earthquakes reported that the infills panels had an important contribution in the seismic response of the ...

Importance of masonry infill walls for framed buildings
2017 International Conference on ENERGY and ENVIRONMENT (CIEM), 2017The paper presents a study about the effect of masonry infill walls on the behavior of framed buildings, in seismic areas. The study was done for a building that will be built in Bucharest, Romania. In this case, the building will have 6 stories. The bays are narrow, because of the architecture requirements. The structure is composed of concrete frames.

Structures, 2016
Abstract Sassanid era arches are among the oldest arches in Persian architecture. In this study, an infilled masonry wall and a similar Sassanid era arched masonry wall, both with clay bricks (square bricks of 195 mm long) and clay and gypsum mortar, are compared and their seismic behaviors are tested under cyclic loading (as per protocol).

Blast response of GFRP-strengthened infill masonry walls
Construction and Building Materials, 2016Abstract Recent spurt in terrorist activities throughout the globe have drawn the attention of engineers and scientists to the vulnerability of buildings and infrastructure to blast loads. The failure of infill masonry walls has been widely witnessed even in low magnitude blasts.

Interval finite element analysis of masonry-infilled walls
Structural Engineering and Mechanics, 2012This paper strongly addresses to the problem of the mechanical systems in which parameters are uncertain and bounded. Interval calculation is used to find sharp bounds of the structural parameters for infilled frame system modeled with finite element method.
