Reinforced concrete frame buildings with masonry infill walls are one of the most popular
structural systems in the world. In most cases, the effects of masonry infill walls are not …

Masonry infill walls of reinforced concrete frame structures are commonly used for non-
engineered and engineered buildings. For this establishment, exterior walls and interior …

Un-reinforced masonry walls are commonly used as infills in reinforced concrete (RC)
buildings. These buildings have high in-plane stiffness and strength, and therefore, the …

The interaction between the masonry infill wall and the surrounding RC frames and the
positive or negative consequences of integrating infill walls into a frame is often ignored for …

Reinforced concrete (RC) frames with masonry infills can be encountered all over the world,
especially in earthquake prone regions. Although masonry infills are usually not considered …

Masonry infills in reinforced concrete buildings cause several undesirable effects under
seismic loading: short-column effect, soft-storey effect, torsion, and out-of-plane collapse …

Reinforced concrete (RC) buildings with masonry infill walls are the most common type of
structures used for multistory constructions in all over the world. Masonry is one of the most …

This study aims to investigate the effect of masonry infill wall with opening on reinforced
concrete frame due to seismic loading under the influence of storey number and panel …

This paper presents a synthesis of the typical damages recorded in reinforced concrete
frames and masonry infills after recent earthquakes. The behavior and failure modes of the …

Infill walls are considered to non-bearing structural members but affect not only structure
masses also lateral rigidities which may cause free vibration behavior of the buildings …
