The masonry infill walls' seismic behaviour is being characterized by extensive damages
and out-of-plane (OOP) collapses due to combined in-plane and OOP loading demands …

The detrimental infill‐frame interaction and vulnerable nature of the traditional solid infill
walls might change the seismic behavior of the infilled reinforced concrete frames. To …

This paper aims to introduce a new type of damping infill wall system to alleviate the
negative infill-frame interaction of fragile infill walls for reinforced concrete (RC) frames and …

Sixteen reinforced concrete beams having the cross-sectional dimensions of 100× 200×
2000 mm and clear span of 1800 mm were cast and tested until failure under a single mid …

While there is a significant body of research on crack detection by computer vision methods
in concrete and asphalt, less attention has been given to masonry. We train a convolutional …

Masonry walls are susceptible to out-of-plane failures during seismic events. Therefore, this
study investigated the out-of-plane flexural behavior of autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) …

Abstract Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) has been gaining more and more attention in
research and professional fields as a sustainable and promising construction system for mid …

This study proposes an innovative prefabricated damping wall panels infill for semi-rigid
connected steel frame to release adverse infill-frame interaction. The comparative …

It is widely accepted that infill walls play an important role in the structural response of
buildings under seismic excitations. Disregarding their influences on the seismic design and …

Concrete block infill walls, due to their high strength and stiffness, can significantly influence
the seismic behavior of the frames. The infill walls can increase the overall lateral frame …
