Applied Sciences, 2023 A refined design procedure for the seismic retrofit of warehouses or, more generally, single-storey RC frames bounded by “drift-sensitive” masonry infills and glazed curtain walls, is proposed in this paper by means of hysteretic braces.

Untersuchungen an mit Mauerwerk ausgefachten Stahlbetonrahmen und neue Lösungsvorschläge [PDF]
, 2016 The vulnerability of unreinforced masonry walls (URM) under seismic events, causing huge loss of money and human lives, has revealed the enormous need for an efficient strengthening material.

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

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

STRUCTURAL CONCEPTS IN THE DESIGN OF MASONRY-INFILLED STEEL FRAMES
Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Computational Methods in Structural Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering (COMPDYN 2015), 2021 Despite numerous research studies conducted in the field of masonry-infilled steel (and concrete) frames, there is still no adequate codified design method. There is, however, a consensus that masonry-infilled frames should be treated as potentially hazardous earthquake context structural solutions.

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

COMPARISON OF NON-LINEAR MASONRY INFILL MACRO-MODELS
Electronic Journal of the Faculty of Civil Engineering Osijek-e-GFOS, 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.
