Numerical Investigation of Masonry Walls Using Mega-Interlocking Concrete Blocks

Modelling
Conventional concrete masonry construction consists of an assemblage of concrete blocks, mortar, grout, and steel reinforcement. While effective, this constructive method is constrained by its low productivity. In recent decades, advances in construction

Investigation of the bed joint reinforcement effect on the drift capacity of modern unreinforced masonry walls [PDF]

MATEC Web of Conferences
Bed joint reinforcement significantly affects the shear capacity of masonry walls due to its effective ability to transfer shear forces through a diagonal crack, but how does this phenomenon impact its drift capacity?
