Masonry enclosure walls: lessons learnt from the recent Abruzzo Earthquake [PDF]
This paper approaches the issue of performance requirements and construction criteria for masonry enclosure and infill walls. Vertical building enclosures in European countries include, very often, non-loadbearing masonry walls, using horizontally ...

The effect of openings in URM infills on the seismic resilience of a reinforced concrete building
In high seismicity regions, the use of unreinforced masonry (URM) infills in reinforced concrete buildings is massive. In most of them, the openings in URM infills due to architectural requirements cause a variation in lateral stiffness which, in turn ...

Redundancy In Steel Frames With Masonry Infill Walls
Structural redundancy is an interesting point in seismic design of structures. Initially, the structural redundancy is described as indeterminate degree of a system. Although many definitions are presented for redundancy in structures, recently the definition of structural redundancy has been related to the configuration of structural system and the ...

Seismic behaviour and strengthening of existing reinforced concrete structures [PDF]
The seismic vulnerability associated to existing reinforced concrete buildings, constructed until the late 1970’s, in urban areas of many European countries with moderate to high seismic hazard, is of extreme importance.
