Design Proposal for Masonry Infill Walls Subject to Seismic Actions [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Several factors influence the behaviour of masonry infilled frames, which have been the subject of previous research with moderate success. The new generation of European design standards imposes the need to prevent the brittle collapse of infills and ...

Fragility functions for masonry infill walls with in‐plane loading [PDF]

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering & Structural Dynamics, 2017
SummaryRecent seismic events have provided evidence that damage to masonry infills can lead not only to large economic losses but also to significant injuries and even fatalities. The estimation of damage of such elements and the corresponding consequences within the performance‐based earthquake engineering framework requires the construction of ...

Application and Prospect of New Masonry Infilled Wall

open access: yesHighlights in Science, Engineering and Technology, 2022
As a new wall material, autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) can realize the self-insulation system of "single material" wall in different climate regions in China. At the same time, it has obvious advantages in engineering construction, such as saving resources, easy processing, and good fire resistance.

Assessment of the Out-of-Plane Resistance of Masonry Infill Walls [PDF]

open access: yesCivil-Comp Proceedings, 2015
Observation of damage after earthquakes has highlighted that out-of-plane failures of masonry infill walls may often occur even in the case of low or moderate earthquakes, causing both casualty risks for people and unfavourable situations affecting the overall structural response. In recent years, several experimental tests have been carried out trying

NUMERICAL MODELLING OF MASONRY INFILL WALLS IN EXISTING STEEL FRAMES [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 8th International Conference on Computational Methods in Structural Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering (COMPDYN 2015), 2021
It is now widely recognised that masonry infill plays an essential role in the seismic behaviour of existing steel buildings; however, there is still a lack of clear guidance on the modelling of masonry infill in the current Eurocode 8-Part 3. Several methods for the numerical modelling of masonry infills have been proposed in literature over the past ...

Out-of-plane Proof Testing of Masonry Infill Walls [PDF]

open access: yesStructures, 2018
Proof testing of multiple fired-clay-brick unreinforced masonry (URM) infill walls set within reinforced concrete frames was undertaken using airbags to simulate out-of-plane (OOP) loading. The proof testing was conducted to provide engineers in various research and practitioner roles with verified wall behaviour for the purpose of seismic assessment ...

Finite element analyses on hysteretic behavior of steel frames infilled with AAC masonry wall with circular-arc openings

open access: yesJournal of Asian Architecture and Building Engineering, 2023
The steel frame infilled with the autoclaved lightweight aerated concrete (AAC) masonry wall is widely applied in buildings. However, earthquake damage investigation has revealed that infill walls have a significant influence on the mechanical behaviors ...

Effect of the Openings on the Seismic Response of an Infilled Reinforced Concrete Structure

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
The seismic behavior of the infill masonry infill walls has a significant impact on the global response of reinforced concrete frame structures. One factor influencing its behavior is the existence of openings in the walls, such as doors and windows ...
