Effect of Masonry Infill Constitutive Law on the Global Response of Infilled RC Buildings [PDF]

Buildings, 2021
Masonry-infilled reinforced concrete frames represent a very common construction typology across the Mediterranean countries. The presence of infills substantially modifies the global seismic performances of buildings in terms of strength, stiffness, and

On the influence of masonry infills in concrete buildings [PDF]

Civil-Comp Proceedings, 2010
The stresses induced in a structure by a seismic action have a low probability of occurrence and their magnitude is such that the structure is forced beyond the ultimate limit state.

Modeling Strategies of Ductile Masonry Infills for the Reduction of the Seismic Vulnerability of RC Frames

Frontiers in Built Environment, 2020
The threat to human lives and the economic losses due to high seismic vulnerability of non-engineered traditional masonry infills subjected to earthquakes have been highlighted by several post-seismic surveys and experimental and numerical investigations.

Flexible joints for seismic-resilient design of masonry-infilled RC frames [PDF]

Scientific Data
Masonry infills are among the most seismically vulnerable components in reinforced concrete frame structures. One promising mitigation strategy involves the use of rubber joints, which has shown potential in prior studies.

Evaluation of Repair Costs for Masonry Infills in RC Buildings from Observed Damage Data: the Case-Study of the 2009 L’Aquila Earthquake

Buildings, 2019
The estimation of direct and indirect losses due to earthquakes is a key issue in the Performance Based Earthquake Engineering framework. In commonly adopted loss computation tools, no specific data related to masonry infill panels, widespread in moment ...

Numerically based proposals for the stiffness and strength of masonry infills with openings in reinforced concrete frames [PDF]

Earthquake Engineering and Structural Dynamics, 2016
Aimed at investigating the effect of openings on the in-plane behaviour of masonry infills in reinforced concrete frames, a parametric study is presented based on model calibration via experimental tests.

Masonry infills and earthquakes [PDF]

, 2009
Masonry infills are building elements with high cost that often suffer cracking due to movement of the supports and thermohygral behaviour, with serious consequences in comfort and efficiency, particularly in the case of enclosure walls.

Comparison of Analytical Methods for Modelling Masonary Infill by Considering In-Plane and Out-of-Plane Interaction [PDF]

Journal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2021
Masonry infilled reinforced concrete frame buildings built prior to the introduction of modern seismic provisions have been observed to undergo damage in and around the masonry infill walls during most recent moderate to severe earthquakes.

Correlation between energy and displacement demands for infilled reinforced concrete frames

Frontiers in Built Environment, 2023
Introduction: It is well recognized that masonry infills, even though they are non-structural elements, might offer a significant earthquake resistance and can prevent the collapse of relatively weak reinforced concrete structures.Methods: The goal of ...
