In‐Plane Resistance of Reinforced Masonry Shear Walls

Journal of Structural Engineering, 1990
Flexural and shear strengths of reinforced masonry shear walls are examined, based on experimental results obtained from 22 6-ft. by 6-ft. masonry wall specimens. These results are summarized and current design formulae examined. It is found that the simple flexure theory based on the plane-section assumption can be applied to square wall panels with ...

Seismic performance of mortarless reinforced masonry walls

Journal of Building Engineering, 2020
Abstract Reinforced masonry walls are commonly used as a primary lateral load resisting system in buildings in regions of moderate or high seismicity. Mortarless reinforced masonry (MLRM) walls are constructed using concrete masonry units placed without mortar and then interconnected by concrete grout.

REINFORCEMENT OF LOAD-LOADING MASONRY WALLS WITH SHOTCRETE

Building and reconstruction, 2023
The analysis of the types of damage to vertical load-bearing elements of masonry from explosive impacts is carried out, the main signs of such damage requiring special reinforcement methods are described. Modern methods of restoring the bearing capacity of masonry require refinement and adaptation when considering cases of explosive impacts.

Shear Strength of Reinforced Masonry Walls

The Masonry Society Journal, 1996
Predicting the shear strength of reinforced masonry walls is still largely an unsolved problem. While the flexural strength of a wall can be adequately estimated with the simple flexure theory, the complex interaction of various shear mechanisms hinders the development of a simple rational method for evaluating the shear strength.

Curvature Ductility of Reinforced Masonry Walls and Reinforced Concrete Walls

2021
Research conducted in this work proposes an equation to evaluate and compares the curvature ductility of reinforced masonry (RM) and reinforced concrete (RC) walls. The curvature ductilities are measured at varying levels of axial stresses for walls for aspect ratio (l/h) of 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5.

Characterization and Reinforcement of Stone Masonry Walls

2013
Stone masonry is one of the oldest “structural materials” known to man. It is made by the superposition of stones, mortar and, very often, with infill material between leaves. The components present complex links and interactions and, in most cases, unknown geometry and high variability of their mechanical properties.

COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF REINFORCED CONCRETE MASONRY WALLS

2005
The strength of reinforced concrete masonry walls formed with mortared stretcher bonded concrete ‘H’ blocks, core filled with high slump grout and centrally reinforced with unrestrained reinforcement is investigated. Codes of practice consider masonry walls with unrestrained reinforcement to be unreinforced.
