Study on overstrength and ductility of reinforced concrete building with different infill through nonlinear analysis

open access: yesStructural Mechanics of Engineering Constructions and Buildings, 2021
The building structure with infill wall shows higher global stiffness along with the uncertain behaviour during 2015 Gorkha earthquake. It significantly increased the collapse rate of structures during earthquakes.

Behaviour of Reinforced Concrete Frames with Central Opening Masonry Infill under Lateral Reversed Cyclic Loading.

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2019
This paper will describe the seismic behaviour of masonry infilled RC frame with a central opening structure under reversed cyclic lateral loading. To achieve the purpose of this study, four 1/4-scale single story and single bay RC frame specimens were ...

COMPARISON OF NON-LINEAR MASONRY INFILL MACRO-MODELS

open access: yesElektronički časopis građevinskog fakulteta Osijek, 2014
Reinforced-concrete frames with masonry infill are composite systems, common in low and medium-high buildings, whose behavior under earthquake loads is difficult to predict. Because of that, most national codes ignore the contribution of infill to the structural response.

Human Comfort Assessment of Buildings Considering the Effect of the Masonry Infills and the Soil-Structure Interaction [PDF]

open access: yesComputational Engineering and Physical Modeling, 2019
The increase in slenderness of building projects has been crucial for reducing the natural frequency values, causing excessive vibration problems. Two other important aspects, generally disregarded in the current design practice are related to the ...

Detailed and simplified non-linear models for timber-framed masonry structures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The need for improved methodologies to describe the post elastic behaviour of existing structures in the framework of seismic vulnerability assessment has long been recognised.

Graphical dynamic trends for earthquake incidence response of plan-asymmetric systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A Graphical Dynamic model is derived to describe the directional earthquake response of two-ways plan-asymmetric systems, which retains the insightful educational evidence of traditional graphical static methods and the accuracy of computational methods ...

Seismic Loss Estimation in Pre-1970 Residential RC Buildings: The Role of Infills and Services in Low–Mid-Rise Case Studies

open access: yesFrontiers in Built Environment, 2020
The lessons learned after recent earthquakes have highlighted the key role played by infills and services in damage and loss of Reinforced Concrete (RC) buildings.

Seismic assessment via EC8 of modern heritage structures:Knowledge of the structure and analysis methodologies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Given the interest earned recently by modern heritage structures, seismic assessment criteria of Eurocode 8, for ordinary reinforced concrete structures, are applied to a modern heritage RC building.

Earthquake Retrofitting of “Soft-Story” RC Frame Structures with RC Infills

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Multi-story, old reinforced concrete (RC) structures with a “soft-story” on the ground floor, sustain considerable damage to the soft story during earthquakes due to the presence of masonry infills in the upper stories.
