Out-of-plane behavior of decoupled masonry infills under seismic loading
(17th World Conference on Earthquake Engineering, 2020)
Masonry is used in many buildings not only for load-bearing walls, but also for non-load-bearing enclosure elements in the form of infill walls. Many studies confirmed that infill walls interact with the surrounding ...
Performance of masonry infill walls in reinforced concrete frame buildings in recent earthquakes
(International Symposium on Durrës Earthquakes and Eurocodes, 2020)
Reinforced concrete (RC) frame structural system is widely used for housing and commercial construction in urban areas around the world. Exterior and interior partitions are in the form of masonry infills, which are usually ...
Seismic behaviour of RC frames with uncoupled masonry infills having two storeys or two bays
(Brick and Block Masonry-From Historical to Sustainable Masonry: Proceedings of the 17th International Brick/Block Masonry Conference (17th IB2MaC 2020), 2020)
Reinforced concrete (RC) structures with masonry infills are widely used for several types of buildings all over the world. However, it is well known that traditional masonry infills constructed with rigid contact to the ...
Earthquake-proof system for masonry infills in RC frame structures
(International Journal of Masonry Research and Innovation, 2020)
The use of masonry infill walls in RC frame structures is common in many countries, even in seismically active areas, where the observations made after strong earthquakes have shown that masonry infills significantly modify ...
Influence of patch load length on strengthening effect in steel plate girders
(Journal of Constructional Steel Research, 2022)
The present paper aims to numerically investigate the influence of patch load length related to various geometric parameters on the patch loading resistance of steel plate girders. Geometric parameters such as the web ...
Seismic performance of an industrial multi-storey frame structure with process equipment subjected to shake table testing
(Engineering Structures, 2021)
Past earthquakes demonstrated the high vulnerability of industrial facilities equipped with complex process technologies leading to serious damage of process equipment and multiple and simultaneous release of hazardous ...
Experimental investigation of behaviour of masonry infilled RC frames under out-of-plane loading
(COMPDYN 2021 - 8th ECCOMAS Thematic Conference on Computational Methods in Structural Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering, 2021)
Masonry infills are commonly used as exterior or interior walls in reinforced concrete (RC) frame structures and they can be encountered all over the world, including earthquake prone regions. Since the middle of the 20th ...
Performance of masonry buildings during the November 26, 2019 Albania earthquake (Mw 6.4) and December 29, 2020 Petrinja earthquake (Mw 6.4)
(19th MASE Symposium, 2022)
In the period of one year, several moderate intensity earthquakes occurred in the Balkan Peninsula. It is interesting that among four significant earthquakes in this period of time, two with the same magnitude (Mw 6.4) ...
Prediction of Ultimate Compressive Strength of CCFT Columns Using Machine Learning Algorithms
(8th International Conference Science and Practice, Kolasin, Montenegro, 2022)
The composite concrete-filled steel tube columns are structural members with numerous advantages over the traditional reinforced concrete or the pure steel members. The behavior of these columns is highly nonlinear. This ...
Seismic testing of adjacent interacting masonry structures – shake table test and blind prediction competition
(3rd European Conference on Earthquake Engineering & Seismology, 2022)
Across historical centres in Europe, stone masonry buildings form building aggregates that developed as the layout of the city or village was densified. In these aggregates, adjacent buildings can share structural walls ...
