Detailed micro-modeling of partially grouted reinforced masonry shear walls: extended validation and parametric study
(2021)
Partially grouted reinforced masonry (PG-RM) shear walls have been widely used as structural elements in low- and medium-rise earthquake-resistant buildings. Nonetheless, assessing its shear strength represents a complex ...
Seismic behavior of partially grouted masonry shear walls containing openings: Experimental testing
(2023)
This article presents an experimental study aimed at understanding the effect of openings on the seismic response of partially grouted reinforced masonry (PG-RM) walls. For this purpose, four full-scale PG-RM walls with ...
Influence of different design parameters on the seismic performance of partially grouted masonry shear walls
(2021)
In recent earthquakes in Chile (e.g., Maule’s 2010 earthquake), buildings built with bed-joint partially grouted reinforced masonry (BJ-PG-RM) shear walls made of multi-perforated clay bricks (MPCB) have not collapsed, ...
Proposal of a test specimen to evaluate the shear strength of vertical interfaces of running bond masonry walls
(NATL RESEARCH COUNCIL CANADA-N R C RESEARCH PRESS, 2008)
There is no normalized test to assess the shear strength of vertical interfaces of interconnected masonry walls. The approach used to evaluate this strength is normally indirect and often unreliable. The aim of this study ...

Revealing earthquake-resistant geometrical features in heritage masonry architecture in Santiago, Chile
(Taylor & Francis, 2017)
Chile is in one of the most seismically active zones in the world and its capital, Santiago, has frequently been destroyed by earthquakes since its foundation by Spanish colonialists in 1541. Nonetheless, there are some ...
Seismic assessment of irregular masonry macro-elements through a nonlinear framed model: a case study
(Springer Netherlands, 2019)
© 2019, Springer Nature B.V.The seismic assessment of heritage structures with complex architecture, such as masonry churches, remains a challenging task. In most cases, an accurate and reliable assessment of this type of ...
Study of vertical load distribution in full-scale four-story masonry building
(2014-01-01)
The vertical load distribution between the walls in a masonry building is a difficult issue in structural engineering. The absence of research regarding this subject results in using simple load distribution methods by the ...
