Abstract: This paper presents detailed analyses of experimental results pertaining to the cyclic behavior of a reduced-scale reinforced masonry (RM) asymmetric building with walls aligned in two orthogonal directions. The current ...

Abstract: This paper focuses on analyzing the performance of structural walls comprising the seismic force resisting system (SFRS) in a scaled asymmetrical fully grouted reinforced masonry (RM) building tested under quasi-static ...

Abstract: In this study, a two-story reinforced concrete block scaled building was tested to failure under fully reversed quasi-static displacement-controlled loading. The building’s seismic force-resisting system (SFRS) consisted ...
