Partially grouted concrete masonry shear walls subject to in-plane shear load: a critical review [PDF]
Revista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais, 2023 : Although structures have been built from masonry for many years, little is still known about the behaviour of a wall subject to in-plane shear. This is particularly true of partially grouted concrete masonry.
