Over the last 50 years, research has mainly focused on characterizing the In-Plane behaviour of unreinforced masonry infill walls. Recently, the focus of research has been …
The construction of RC frame structures with masonry infills is part of the traditional building practice in many European countries and worldwide. Several studies have been recently …
This study aims to propose a multi-strut macro-model, capable of simulating the overall force- displacement behaviour of infilled frames with various opening configurations. For this …
The out-of-plane (OOP) response of unreinforced masonry (URM) infill walls under seismic loading has been widely studied in very recent times with both experimental and numerical …
The in-plane (IP) and out-of-plane (OOP) seismic collapse of masonry infills (MIs) may induce devastating economic and social consequences for public buildings such as …
In recent years, several seismic retrofitting projects of existing buildings have been involving additional measures to improve their energy efficiency, thanks to new regulations aiming at …

This paper presents an overview of the experimental results obtained by combined in- plane/out-of-plane (IP/OOP) tests carried out on robust clay masonry infill walls. The …
The paper presents a new empirical expression estimating the out-of-plane (OOP) resistance of infilled reinforced concrete frames subject to horizontal forces. The new model …
