Effect of Aftershocks on Seismic Fragilities of Single-Story Masonry Structures
Frontiers in Physics, 2021 The effect of aftershocks on the fragility of single-story masonry structures is investigated using probabilistic seismic demand analysis Finite element models of an unreinforced masonry (URM) structure and a confined masonry (CM) structure are ...

Seismic Capacity Assessment of Confined Brick Masonry Building: An Experimental Approach
Shock and Vibration, 2018 Brick masonry is widely used for building construction throughout the world. However, unreinforced brick masonry buildings performed poorly in the 2005 Kashmir earthquake, in Pakistan, resulting in a decline in the use of brick masonry.

Response of masonry systems against blast loading
Defence Technology, 2021 In this paper eight successive experimental blast tests with an increasing TNT equivalent charge weights ranging from 0.56 kg to 17.78 kg were conducted on unreinforced, ferrocemented overlay masonry and confined masonry walls.

Structural Response of Unreinforced Masonry Walls [PDF]
Journal of Civil Engineering and Architecture, 2016 Historical buildings located in seismic regions have URM (unreinforced masonry) walls of considerable width as their main structure. In order to study the structural response of such type of masonry, it is necessary to know its mechanical and elastic characteristics. For such purpose, it is generally necessary to perform destructive and non-destructive
