Abstract: In-plane shear and compression are important modes in masonry walls, both in load bearing structures and in framed structures. By these mechanical actions shear forces caused by wind and earthquakes are resisted. Upon ...

Abstract: Evaluation of the seismic performance of infill frame structural systems using equivalent strut models and pushover analysis has gained popularity due to the simplicity of the evaluation process. Various strut macromodels ...
