The main objective of the study is to investigate the effect of partial infill walls on collapse
mechanism of reinforced concrete (RC) frames using finite element models and …

In the aftermath of earthquakes poor seismic response was evidenced by non-structural
elements such as enclosure masonry infills (MIs), characterized by a combination of in-plane …

Reinforced concrete (RC) frames with unreinforced masonry (URM) infill walls are
commonly used in seismic regions around the world. It is recognized that many buildings of …

This study numerically investigates progressive collapse mechanisms of post-tensioned RC
frames under column removal scenarios by using the finite element method. The primary …

A high percentage of new and existing framed buildings (either in concrete or steel) are built
with unreinforced masonry infilled walls leading to the structural typology known as Infilled …

This paper presents an experimental study of the seismic performance of a category of
reinforced concrete (RC) frame with weak infill panel and the complicated interaction …

Historic buildings are important parts of our cultural heritage and contribute to the social and
economic of communities. Hinged steel frames with masonry infill walls were extensively …

Masonry infill walls are critical components of reinforced concrete (RC) frames, which may
be damaged even under earthquake events of moderate intensity, thus resulting in …

This paper presents the findings of a series of bidirectional quasi-static tests conducted on
isolated infilled frames to investigate the in-plane and out-of-plane interaction of the infills …

This paper presents a numerical investigation on progressive collapse mechanisms of steel
frames with partial infill walls under fire scenarios using ABAQUS platform. The load …
