Experimental assessment of an innovative strengthening material for brick masonry infills [PDF]
The vulnerability of masonry infill walls has been highlighted in recent earthquakes in which severe inplane damage and out-of-plane collapse developed, justifying the investment in the proposal of strengthening solutions aiming to improve the seismic ...

Numerical Simulation of the Tension–Compression Behavior of Tie Connections in Brick Masonry Walls
Brick masonry veneer walls connected to infill walls inserted in a reinforced concrete (RC) frame are a common constructive system in Portugal. The stability of the veneer wall is ensured by ties that make the connection with the masonry infill walls ...

Application and Prospect of New Masonry Infilled Wall
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.

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