Abstract Multi-Perforated Clay Bricks (MPCLBs) are widely used in the construction of
modern masonry structures worldwide, including earthquake-prone areas. However, few …

Aiming towards a better understanding of the structural response presented by multi-
perforated clay brick masonry, this paper presents the results of an experimental program …

The paper discusses the mechanical behaviour of masonry composed of fired solid bricks
and earth mortar. Such masonry is a typical construction technique in South and Southeast …

Brick masonry plays an important role in the field of construction, signifying the need to study
the nature of behaviour of masonry in different conditions and compositions. In this paper …

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 …

Presented in this paper are the results of an investigation of the compressive behavior of
grouted clay brick masonry prisms. The objective is to experimentally capture the stress …

This research work proposes methods to rises the resistance and to evaluate the behavior of
confined masonry walls built from clay solid bricks. These elements are widely used in …

This study investigates the fundamental shear response of masonry triplets incorporating
fired-clay bricks and hydraulic lime mortars. It examines the behaviour under ambient-dry …

Unreinforced masonry (URM) structures that are in need of repair and rehabilitation
constitute a significant portion of building stock worldwide. The successful application of …

Brick masonry constitutes the vital part of building construction globally. As they are inelastic
and have nonhomogenous material properties, the analysis for evaluating the performance …
