Experimental Seismic Performance Evaluation of Unreinforced Brick Masonry Buildings
Earthquake Spectra, 2012This paper presents an experimental study on the performance of a full-scale unreinforced brick masonry (URM) building system tested under quasi-static loading at the Earthquake Engineering Centre, University of Engineering and Technology in Peshawar, Pakistan.

Seismic Assessment of Unreinforced Masonry Buildings In Canada
2016Unreinforced masonry (URM) structures have shown tobe susceptible to significant damage during strong earthquakes. Vulnerability assessment of URM buildings is needed so that appropriate mitigation strategies can be implemented. The existing Canadian practice consists of rapid seismic screening of buildings to assign priorities for further and more ...

Damage assessment of unreinforced masonry buildings incorporating damage accumulation
Earthquake Engineering & Structural DynamicsAbstractRecent earthquakes have shown susceptibility of unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings to damage accumulation in seismic sequences or long duration ground motions. Current structural modelling approaches commonly disregard the damage accumulation in URM buildings or they are unable to accurately capture this phenomenon unless sophisticated FEM ...

Performance‐based engineering concepts for unreinforced masonry building structures
Progress in Structural Engineering and Materials, 2001AbstractPerformance‐based concepts are discussed in terms of their application for seismic assessment, rehabilitation and design of unreinforced masonry buildings. Deviations from traditional design approaches for masonry are discussed in terms of new performance‐based engineering procedures recently introduced through the FEMA 273 Guidelines for ...

Ambient Vibrations of Unreinforced Masonry Buildings in Dhaka City
2018The main objective of this research was to identify the predominant or natural periods of targeted unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings by performing ambient vibration tests to compare the obtained structural predominant period with the structural period calculated by the formula given in the Bangladesh National Building Codes.

Displacement-based seismic design of unreinforced masonry buildings
2014Displacement-based seismic design has been proved to be a rational procedure allowing the control of the inelastic response for both framed and wall structures under earthquake loading. Nevertheless, the application of this design methodology to masonry buildings still needs to be investigated.
