Influence of geometry on creep and moisture movement of clay, calcium silicate and concrete masonry [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
This investigation involved creep and moisture movement measurements for about six months on 13-course clay (Engineering class B) and calcium silicate brickwork, and 5-course concrete blockwork, consecutively.

Analysis of behaviour of calcium silicate hollow blocks masonry subjected to the concentrated load

open access: yesEngineering Structures and Technologies, 2020
Loading of masonry with concentrated load is a sufficiently common case of loading which occurs due to structures of various purposes and sizes which lean against masonry wall, column or partition wall.

A comparative analysis of compression bearing capacity in recycled concrete brick walls and composite walls incorporating coal-ash blocks

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
In the face of the problem of waste disposal in the demolition of concrete structures, a composite wall composed of recycled concrete bricks and fly ash blocks was proposed, and based on the previous thermal performance research, its axial compression ...

Natural FRCM and Heritage Buildings: Experimental Approach to Innovative Interventions on “Wall Beams”

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
In this paper, an innovative strengthening system for masonry walls made of externally bonded Fabric-Reinforced Cementitious Matrix (FRCM) is presented. Due to the good mechanical properties and the compatibility with the architectural heritage, the FRCM

Masonry wall panels retrofitted with thermal-insulating GFRP-reinforced jacketing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Today there is a need to provide thermally efficient walls, while at the same time to increase the mechanical properties of old unreinforced masonry walls that will not require large amounts of energy in the retrofitting or deconstruction processes.

Masonry Wall Reinforcement

open access: yesAll Sciences Abstracts, 2023
Unreinforced masonry has been used as a construction material for thousands of years. Whilesome of these structures survive to this day, these tend to have massive walls and would be unpractical formodern use. Unreinforced masonry can be reinforced with proper masonry techniques.
