Abstract: The objectives of this research were to experimentally establish the in-plane behavior of partially grouted (PG) reinforced concrete masonry shear walls and to assess the appropriateness of current seismic design provisions ...

Abstract: Relatively little information is available on the growth patterns of gold aluminide compound in accurate 3D measurement as compared with 2D images of the projected surface. A 3D surface imaging ...

Abstract: Recent studies have shown that in the event of a strong earthquake, partially grouted (PG) masonry walls would most likely not perform according to code expectations. The research reported herein is focused on introducing ...
