Study of the Arrangement Effect of Units on the Shear Strength Masonry Walls in Meso-Scale [PDF]
Journal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2016 Masonry is one of the oldest building materials which have been used in most heritage structures and new construction. In this study by using a meso-scale finite element model, the behavior of masonry walls is investigated under monotonic loading by ...

Anisotropy Effect of Masonry on the Behaviour and Bearing Capacity of Masonry Walls
Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2020 Firstly, an updated numerical model for the numerical analysis of planar unreinforced and confined masonry walls is presented. The model can simulate the main nonlinear material effects of masonry and reinforced concrete.

Experimental Study on the Seismic Performance of Recycled Concrete Hollow Block Masonry Walls
Applied Sciences, 2019 This paper aims to manufacture recycled concrete hollow block (RCHB) which can be used for the masonry structure with seismic requirements. Five RCHB masonry walls were tested under cyclic loading to evaluate the effect of the axial compression stress ...

All 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.
