Behavior of Brick–Mortar Interfaces in FRP-Strengthened Masonry Assemblages under Normal Loading and Shear Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Determination of shear strength of brick–mortar bed joint is critical to overcome the sliding-shear or joint-shear failure in masonry. In the recent past, researchers have attempted to enhance the shear strength and ...
FRP-Confined Clay Brick Masonry Assemblages under Axial Compression: Experimental and Analytical Investigations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Unreinforced masonry (URM) structures that are in need of repair and rehabilitation constitute a significant portion of building stock worldwide. The successful application of fiber-reinforced polymers (FRP) for repair and ...
Static Analysis of Infinite Laminated Cylindrical Shell Panel
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents an approximate three-dimensional elasticity solution for an infinitely long, cross-ply laminated circular cylindrical shell panel with simply supported boundary conditions, subjected to an arbitrary ...
Analysis of a Long Thick Orthotropic Circular Cylindrical Shell Panel
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An exact three-dimensional elasticity solution has been obtained for an infinitely long, thick transversely isotropic circular cylindrical shell panel, simply supported along the longitudinal edges and subjected to a radial ...

Characteristic Compressive Strength of Cement-Stabilized Rammed Earth
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Optimum Soil Grading for the Soil-Cement Blocks
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Large numbers of soil-cement block masonry buildings exist in India and many other countries. The paper deals with an experimental study on the influence of soil grading on the characteristics of soil-cement blocks and ...
Enhancing Bond Strength and Characteristics of Soil-Cement Block Masonry
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Soil-cement blocks are used for the load bearing masonry of 2–3-story buildings. Flexural and shear strength of such walls greatly depend upon the bond strength between the block and the mortar. This paper deals with the ...
Influence of Joint Thickness and Mortar-Block Elastic Properties on the Strength and Stresses Developed in Soil-Cement Block Masonry
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Soil-cement blocks are employed for load bearing masonry buildings. This paper deals with the study on the influence of bed joint thickness and elastic properties of the soil-cement blocks, and the mortar on the strength ...
Analysis and Design of Vibration Isolation System Using Open Trenches
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Field vibration tests were carried out at a proposed site for the vibration testing room, and 2D numerical analysis using finite difference tool FLAC 5.0 was performed to suggest effective vibration isolation systems. In ...
