Effects of Single and Multi Openings in Brick Infills on the Seismic Response of Infilled RC Frames

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
Many researchers have performed a lot of studies of the seismic behavior reinforced concrete (RC) frame with masonry infill. They found that masonry infill affects the lateral strength, stiffness and ductility performance of the RC frame structures ...

Capacity interaction in brick masonry under simultaneous in-plane and out-of-plane loads [PDF]

, 2013
A considerable number of numerical and experimental studies, carried out to-date to investigate the behaviour of masonry walls under seismic loading, have considered the in-plane or the out-of-plane response of the wall separately without due ...

Out-of-plane Proof Testing of Masonry Infill Walls [PDF]

Structures, 2018
Proof testing of multiple fired-clay-brick unreinforced masonry (URM) infill walls set within reinforced concrete frames was undertaken using airbags to simulate out-of-plane (OOP) loading. The proof testing was conducted to provide engineers in various research and practitioner roles with verified wall behaviour for the purpose of seismic assessment ...

Pre‐fabricated TRC Panels Versus TRM Jacketing for Integrating Seismic and Energy Retrofitting: Bi‐Directional Shaking Table Tests on Three Masonry‐Infilled RC Buildings

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 54, Issue 6, Page 1617-1641, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Two novel integrated seismic and energy retrofitting solutions for existing buildings are experimentally assessed in this study. Three 60%‐scaled, two‐storey infilled reinforced concrete buildings underwent a series of bi‐directional shaking table tests.

Discrete Element Modeling of Masonry-Infilled Frames [PDF]

, 2016
In this chapter, the different modeling strategies for simulating the behavior of masonry infilled frames are investigated. Particular emphasis is given on the suitability of the Discrete Element Method (DEM) to accurately represent the mechanical behavior, strength and ductility of concrete and brickwork masonry infilled frames.

Damage assessment and seismic response of steel buildings during the Kahramanmaraş, Turkey earthquakes of February 6, 2023

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 41, Issue 2, Page 1565-1588, May 2025.
On February 6, 2023, two earthquakes (Mw 7.8 and 7.5) occurred in Turkey. Notably, 10 provinces in Turkey and several others in Syria were subjected to severe ground shaking, resulting in a high number of casualties following the total and partial collapse of many reinforced concrete buildings.
