Retrofitting Masonry Walls against Out-Of-Plane Loading with Timber Based Panels
Applied Sciences, 2021 Unreinforced masonry walls are prone to failure when subjected to out-of-plane loading. This is due to their low performance in bending, and often the lack of appropriate connection to returning walls and floors.

Experimental evaluation of shear and compression strength of masonry wall before and after reinforcement: Deep repointing [PDF]
, 2007 Masonry presents some inadequacies due to its almost total lack of tensile strength. Typical damage to multiple leaf walls during earthquakes is the loss of bond between the leaves with consequent collapse of the external leaf.

Factors determining the quality of masonry – differentiation of resistance and reliability
Budownictwo i Architektura, 2020 A house or any other building without walls is truly hard to imagine. The first thing usually associated with walls is, of course, masonry. Today, masonry walls perform a load-bearing function in buildings up to four above-ground floors, in the higher ...
