Seismic Mitigation of a Historic Masonry Building
This work presents an analysis of different proposals of rehabilitation of a masonry building, built around the beginning of the XX century for public schools, in the highest seismic risk zone of Argentine; and which was closed down after Mendoza`s Earthquake in 1985. The building has masonry walls of artisanal ceramic bricks and wood-framed roof but it does not have lateral ties. Currently, it...
متن کاملFiberglass Grids as Sustainable Reinforcement of Historic Masonry
Fiber-reinforced composite (FRP) materials have gained an increasing success, mostly for strengthening, retrofitting and repair of existing historic masonry structures and may cause a significant enhancement of the mechanical properties of the reinforced members. This article summarizes the results of previous experimental activities aimed at investigating the effectiveness of GFRP (Glass Fiber...
متن کاملTerrestrial Laser Scanning and Non Parametric Methods in Masonry Arches Inspection
Historical bridges are not only elements of our cultural heritage but also civil engineering structures. They are usually researched with destructive technologies, but their geometry is being more and more used in order to perform structural analysis, and this way it would be possible to make a diagnosis of their state of conservation. Laser scanners collect a great amount of data that allows b...
متن کاملStructural Engineering Forensic Evaluation of Misdiagnosed Concrete Masonry Wall Cracking
Given that concrete masonry walls are expected to experience shrinkage combined with thermal expansion and contraction, and in some cases even carbonation, throughout their service life, cracking is to be expected. However, after concrete masonry walls have been placed into service, originally anticipated and accounted for cracking is often misdiagnosed as a structural defect. Such misdiagnoses...
متن کاملAssessment of Masonry Infilled Reinforced-concrete Frames with Openings
Original scientific paper Reinforced-concrete (R/C) frames infilled with masonry wall, especially with the presence of an opening, are insufficiently explored structural elements. We have experimentally investigated influence of the opening’s type and position to the lateral response of reinforced-concrete frames with masonry infill. Correction factors, that take into account influence of the o...
