Infilled frames are usually modelled in the context of global building analysis using simplified procedures without considering the aspects resulting from the interaction between …
The primary objective of this study is to summarize results from previous experimental tests on laboratory specimens of RC/steel frames with masonry infills, in order to develop fragility …
Abstract Within the European FP7 Project “INSYSME”, a new seismic-resistant clay masonry infill system was conceived with the purpose of controlling damage in the masonry and …
The effect of infill panels on the response of RC frames subjected to seismic action is widely recognised and has been subject of numerous experimental investigations, while several …

Masonry infills incorporated in an existing or newly build frame structure can efficiently improve its seismic behaviour or cause unexpected damages. Reliable prediction of …
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 …
A comprehensive study to evaluate the seismic performance of reinforced concrete (RC) buildings including unreinforced masonry (URM) infill walls is outlined. The study is …
The importance of non-structural components in building performance under seismic action is well recognized in the scientific community. Damage to residential buildings registered in …
