Masonry infills are frequently used as interior partitions and exterior walls in buildings. They
are usually treated as non‐structural elements, and their interaction with the bounding frame …

The analytical modelling of infilled frames is a complex issue because these structures
exhibit a highly non-linear inelastic behaviour resulting from the interaction of the masonry …

Design of infilled frames to resist lateral loads on buildings in terms of their failure modes,
failure loads, and initial stiffnesses using procedures proposed by previous authors is …

This paper presents a literature review of research undertaken on the out-of-plane
behaviour of masonry infilled frames. This paper also discusses the effects of bidirectional …

Framed structures are usually infilled with masonry walls. They may cause a significant
increase in both stiffness and strength, reducing the deformation demand and increasing the …

This work concerns an assessment of the behavior of infilled frames. The feasibility of
possible immediate implementation of some recent developments both in analysis and …

The main objective of this paper is to present a general classification scheme of the failure
modes of in-filled frames, both with and without openings. For the former, the existing …

A comprehensive study has been conducted to evaluate the safety of existing masonry
infilled R/C structures under earthquake loadings. Fourteen 1/2-scale frame specimens have …

Unreinforced masonry panels are often used as interior or exterior partitions in reinforced
concrete frames. How infills affect the seismic performance of an RC building is an intricate …

Infill-frame interaction constitutes a still open question both in research and in practicing
engineering. Computational models used to predict this interaction are, in most cases …
