Developing Hydrostatic Beehive Brickwork

Abstract In this paper, a new masonry construction is proposed based on honey beehive cell internal geometry as unique structure and hydrostatic pressure principle. The considered experimental program involved suggestion, manufacturing, testing analysis of specimens units’ arrangement well corresponding custom arrangement, two classes cementations bonding mortars are used. Plan strain concept Saint Venant’s principle adopted to model assign proper boundary conditions specimens. significant improvement bearing capacity confirmed by the obtained results could be related presence or self-confining pressure, which produced due specific hexagonal units. show that, Mode II exhibited higher in term ultimate service loads besides stiffness comparison with customary I.
