Solutions for infilled masonry buildings: shaking table tests [PDF]

, 2012
Infilled masonry can be seen as an old research issue, but recent seismic activities, such as the 2009 Aquila earthquake in Italy, showed seismic engineers and structural designers that current infill solutions may not work as expected. In this seismic
