Retrofit of Un-Reinforced Infill Masonry Walls with FRP
This paper describes an experimental program that deals with retrofitting of infill un-reinforced masonry walls (URM) with Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP). The primary objective of this research is to develop a retrofit strategy that while economical will minimize the influence of the retrofit on the overall performance of structural frames in predominant seismic regions. Allowing some damage to...
متن کاملFuzzy Fragility Analysis of Structures with Masonry Infill Walls
In this work fragility analysis of reinforced concrete and steel structures withinfill walls is performed.For this purpose a fuzzy-based fragility assessment framework for evaluating 3D framed structures is proposed taking into account various sources of uncertainty. In particular, randomness on the material properties and on the seismic demand is considered. The proposed framework requires the...
متن کاملEffect of Unreinforced Masonry Infill Walls on Seismic Performance of Reinforced Concrete Framed Structures
Unreinforced Masonry infill walls (URM) are commonly used in the Reinforced Concrete (RC) framed structures as interiors and exteriors partition walls. Although they usually are not considered in the structural analysis and design, their influence on the seismic performance of the framed structures is significant. A common practice in the modern and old RC buildings is to remove the URM walls i...
متن کاملStudy on Earthquake Damage Distribution of Multistory Masonry Buildings
The main components which affect the earthquake damage grades classification of multistory masonry buildings and the damage characters are summarized and analyzed through the statistics and analysis of a large number of previous earthquake damage data. According to the standard of earthquake damage grades classification, the damage numbers of each component of multistory masonry buildings under...
متن کاملEnhancing Performance of Infill Masonry With Skin reinforcement Subjected To Cyclic Load
Masonry infill has been widely used as building material due to its cost effectiveness and availability. The failure of these masonry infill walls during the past earthquakes have underscored the importance of ensuring the safety of the infill walls when it is subjected to lateral loads. In-plane and out of plane failures have been observed in many reinforced concrete framed building with maso...
