Flexural Tension in Unreinforced Masonry
Unreinforced masonry is that in which the tensile strength of the masonry is taken into consideration in design. Allowable out-of-plane tensile stress values are a function of the mortar type, such as Portland cement/lime mortar vs. masonry cement mortar or type M or S mortar vs. type N mortar. The allowable tensile stress is also a function of the masonry construction, such as tension parallel...
متن کاملModal Pushover Analysis of SAC Buildings
The nonlinear static procedure (NSP) or pushover analysis in FEMA-273 [FEMA, 1997] has become a standard procedure in current structural engineering practice. Seismic demands are computed by nonlinear static analysis of the structure, which is subjected to monotonically increasing lateral forces with an invariant height-wise distribution until a target displacement is reached. None of the curre...
متن کاملEffective stiffness of unreinforced brick masonry walls
Code design of Unreinforced Masonry (URM) buildings is based on elastic analysis, which requires as input parameter the effective stiffness of URM walls. Current approaches estimate the effective stiffness as fixed ratio of the gross sectional stiffness but comparisons with experimental results have shown that this does not yield satisfactory predictions. In this paper, a recently developed ana...
متن کاملTesting unreinforced masonry structures at reduced scale
When testing multi-story structures on a shaking table, most testing facilities require a reduced scale model. Producing scale test units at small scale is particularly challenging for unreinforced masonry structures. Previous work by other researchers showed that scaling of units and mortar joints is mandatory in order to obtain for the reduced scale masonry failure modes, which are similar to...
متن کاملAssessment of ASCE 41-06 Pushover Procedure in Performance Evaluation of Concrete Vertical Irregular Buildings
Irregular buildings make up a large portion of urban infrastructure. Presence of irregularities can be due to architectural and user changes in building stories. Main objective of this article is evaluate seismic performance of structures with vertical irregularities. Seismic responses are obtained by enveloping peak inelastic responses resulting from pushover analyses according to provided p...
