An experimental study is carried out to investigate the mechanical properties of clay brick
masonry fabricated using traditional mortars. In this regard, four types of mortar whose …

In this paper, three new stress-strain relationships for brick masonry with gypsum mortar and
cement mortar are presented. The relationships are developed based on experimental data …

The elastic macro-mechanical properties of masonry are investigated herein by taking into
account the presence of a weakly non-local heterogeneity within a simple gradient elasticity …

This paper presents an experimental study on the mechanical behavior of masonry
specimens made from two brick types, factory-made and hand-made bricks, and three types …

This paper presents results of a ground penetrating radar (GPR) survey conducted in St.
Joseph's Church in Gdańsk, Poland. The aim of the study was to produce tomographic …

This research presents an experimental and numerical study focusing on the compression
test of cylindrical samples core drilled from existing masonry walls. This method is suitable …

This study offers an idea of investigating the temperature and humidity effect on salt
crystallization in burned clay brick when it is subjected to a saline environment. It has been …

This article presents building assessment research comprising on-site inspections, indoor
scientific tests, and material performance studies on the wall blue clay bricks in the Kaifeng …

Abstract The Xi'an City Wall was built in the early Ming Dynasty not only as a traditional
defensive facility in the past but also as a landmark of Xi'an City at present. This huge …

This experimental study aims to contribute to the knowledge of the mechanical behaviour of
limestone masonry. In order to analyze the influence of varying the number of masonry …
