AbstractA correct design project should not only control the load‐bearing capacity and stability of the individual elements but also ensure proper cooperation between these elements. Connection of masonry walls is crucial for durability of the building, safety of its users, and thermal insulation of external walls.

Reinforced masonry shear walls
Nine 2.4 m high by 1.6 m long reinforced masonry walls (140 mm) were cycled under reverse curvature loading. The walls were designed to investigate the effect of vertical preload and the effectiveness of repair by epoxy grout injection together with certain matters raised by the Draft Code for Design of Reinforced Masonry, in particular effect of ...
