Geometric Limits for the Seismic Design of Unreinforced Masonry Fence Walls

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 1, Page 130-149, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Current seismic design standards require masonry free‐standing walls to comply with regulations for masonry structural walls. Applying these current seismic design standards to fence walls (free‐standing walls) may be inappropriate due to the different restraint conditions between fence walls and structural walls.

A Damage Model for Masonry Infilled Frames [PDF]

open access: yesCivil-Comp Proceedings, 2009
The effect of infill walls on the behaviour of frames is widely recognized, and, for several decades now, has been the subject of numerous experimental investigations. However, the analytical modeling of infilled panels and frames under in-plane loading is difficult and generally unreliable. From the point of view of the simulation technique the models

Physical structural assessment of a segmented concrete shell building floor prototype

open access: yesStructural Concrete, Volume 26, Issue 6, Page 8419-8436, December 2025.
Abstract To reduce the significant environmental impact of the construction industry, building floors designed as concrete shells that work mainly in compression and that are segmented for prefabrication and disassembly offer a promising alternative to reinforced thick flat slabs.

Analytical modeling of masonry-infilled RC frames retrofitted with textile-reinforced mortar [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This paper proposes an analytical approach for modeling the behavior of textile-reinforced mortar (TRM)-strengthened masonry-infilled reinforced-concrete (RC) frames under seismic loading.

Multiparametric modeling of infill shear walls with additionally made openings

open access: yesStructural Concrete, Volume 26, Issue 6, Page 8716-8740, December 2025.
Abstract The paper deals with the implementation of additional openings in reinforced concrete infill shear walls from the point of view of structural analysis. In the introductory part, the current state of knowledge in the methods of analysis of this issue is discussed, and their advantages or shortcomings are pointed out.

Assessment of seismic performance of low-rise reinforced concrete frame structures with masonry infill using fragility curves [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
The seismic performance of reinforced concrete frame structures with masonry infill is a critical area of study due to the complex interactions between the infill and the structural frame during seismic events.

Experimental and Analytical Study of Masonry Infill Reinforced Concrete Frames Retrofitted with Steel Braces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
In the present work a seismic retrofitting technique is proposed for masonry infilled reinforced concrete frames based on the replacement of infill panels by K-bracing with vertical shear link.

The Te Puninga Fault, Hauraki Plains: a new seismic source in the low seismicity northern region of New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 609-627, December 2025.
ABSTRACT In this study, we provide the first field‐based assessment of the seismic potential of the Te Puninga Fault, Hauraki Plains, Waikato region. Initially considered to be part of the nearby Kerepehi Fault, our new mapping and field data suggest the Te Puninga Fault is independent.

Dynamic properties identification for a timber framed masonry house [PDF]

open access: yesConstructii: Journal of Civil Engineering Research, 2020
Timber framed masonry houses represent a traditional type of house that can be found in many countries in the world, having small differences in details though.

Seismic analyses of a R/C building: study of a retrofitting solution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The preliminary experimental results from the tests on a 4-storey R/C frame structure are presented and discussed. The full-scale model is representative of the common practice of 40~50 years ago in most south European countries.
