This study investigated the failure modes of masonry-infilled frames, a common structural
system in modern construction. By analyzing 6,496 frames and considering variables such …

This thesis presents an integral part of an on-going research on out-of-plane behaviour of
masonry infills, this study was motivated to augment the existing experimental database on …

An extensive statistical analysis is conducted on experimental data to achieve a formula for
the strength and stiffness of masonry-infilled frames having central openings. For this, most …

This paper presents an experimental study on the in-plane behavior of a masonry infilled
frame system, referred to as all-masonry infilled frames. This infilled frame system is one …

Masonry walls, when built to infill a frame structure, have been shown to have a significant
effect on the strength, stiffness, and seismic properties of the frame structure. The accurate …

This paper assesses the factors those influence the in-plane structural behavior of masonry
infill frames when exposed to seismic loading. The assessment is carried out using an infill …

In the last few decades, important attention was given to infill masonry panels due to their
worldwide uses. Many experimental and numerical studies were conducted to study their …

Masonry infill walls are the standard solution to build envelopes and partitions walls in
reinforced concrete buildings in southern Europe. In Portugal, masonry infill walls appeared …

Masonry infilled walls have been commonly used as interior partitions as well as exterior
walls infilled in either steel or reinforced concrete frames in the modern building …

Background Masonry is one of the oldest construction materials currently in use around the
world for reasons that include accessibility, functionality, and cost. This material has been …
