چکیده مقاله:

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 masonry infill. To prevent the failure of the infill walls researchers have worked on various confinement techniques like, textile reinforced mortar, ferro cement, and diagonal bracings using fiberglass reinforced panels (FRP) etc. In this paper chicken mesh were used as a confinement technique and the experimental investigation is presented for enhancing the in-plane properties of masonry infill walls like diagonal tension and shear thereby improving the in-plane strength of masonry infill wall. For studying the lateral load capacity of the infill wall two specimens are cast namely, i) infill wall without mesh (B2), ii) infill wall with mesh (B3). Single bay, single floor 1:3 scaled down reinforced cement concrete (RCC) frames designed as per codal provisions are cast with scaled down bricks for construction of infill walls and because of  incorporation of skin reinforcement for infill walls the ductility, energy dissipation, ultimate loads are improved considerably and reduced the displacements.

Modeling of FRP-Strengthened Infill Masonry Structures

This paper presents an analytical approach to describe the behavior and mode of failure of infill masonry structures strengthened with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) materials. The approach is used to simulate the response of strengthened infill masonry walls under the effect of out-of-plane uniformly distributed pressure simulating wind pressure. The approach includes a finite element analysis...

Journal of Composites for Construction Design of FRP-Strengthened Infill Masonry Walls Subjected to Out-of-Plane Loading

4 FRP strengthening systems for infill masonry walls are typically designed to resist flexural stresses due to out-of5 plane pressure. Previous research has shown that there are potential premature failure mechanisms due to shear 6 sliding of the infill, which could reduce the effectiveness of the strengthening system. Current design guidelines for 7 strengthening of masonry walls with fiber-re...

Effect 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...
