Non-linear approaches to the response of brick masonry wall to lateral loading [PDF]
, 2018 The response of brick masonry wall subjected to lateral loading is presented in this paper. Modelling and analysis of masonry seems to be complicated due to two-component material with different properties and dimensions.

TUM bond database with full‐scale beam tests on anchorages and laps in tension
Civil Engineering Design, Volume 8, Issue 1, Page 3-10, March 2026.Abstract Reliable experimental data is essential for the development and validation of structural design models. However, existing bond databases often lack consistency, traceability, and overall data quality. To address this, the Technical University of Munich (TUM) developed the TUM Bond Database (TUMBD), a curated collection of experimental test ...

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 603-623, March 2026.ABSTRACT A significant portion of existing reinforced concrete (RC) structures in seismically active regions was constructed prior to the adoption of modern seismic design standards, leaving them highly susceptible to earthquake‐induced damage. The vulnerabilities of these structures, often exacerbated by material degradation, have been starkly ...

unreinforced masonry buildings [PDF]
, 2008 A recent earthquake of M=4.9 occurred on 29 October 2007 in C, ameli, Denizli, which is located in a seismically active region at southwest Anatolia, Turkey. It has caused extensive damages at unreinforced masonry buildings like many other cases observed

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 781-803, March 2026.ABSTRACT Over recent decades, the collection of seismic data has improved the understanding of near‐fault ground motion effects, which involve both horizontal and vertical components. Among the most significant effects are fault‐normal directivity, which concentrates seismic energy into an intense, long‐period pulse, and fault‐parallel fling step ...

Unreinforced masonry structures
Bulletin of the New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 1996 Unreinforced masonry is widely used in Australia as an architectural and structural material. Because of its high mass, lack of ductility and low tensile strength it is unsuitable for use in areas of high seismicity. However in countries of lower seismicity such as Australia it can be used provided it is designed, detailed and constructed correctly ...

Geoarchaeology, Volume 41, Issue 2, March/April 2026.ABSTRACT This study presents new evidence for the early use of lime mortar during the Early Iron Age at the Piscina Torta site (Ostia, Italy), situated on the earliest Holocene beach ridges in the southern Tiber delta. The site, which was earlier described as a briquetage site, dates from between the late 8th and 6th century BCE and consists of a large

Sustainable Development, Volume 34, Issue S2, Page 280-295, March 2026.ABSTRACT This study investigates how construction waste intensity affects greenhouse gas emissions (GHGe), analyzing data from 345 buildings constructed between 2007 and 2025. Using material waste rates (MWR) from previous cases, it predicts climate impacts based on typical material compositions.

Derivation of fragility curves for traditional timber-framed masonry buildings using nonlinear static analysis [PDF]
, 2013 Recent earthquakes and two experimental campaigns on timber-framed masonry walls have shown that timber-framed masonry buildings possess a good displacement capacity and hence can withstand severe earthquakes without collapse.
