Evaluation of Nonlinear Material Properties of Fly Ash Brick Masonry under Compression and Shear
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper reports nonlinear stress-strain characteristics and failure mechanisms of fly ash brick masonry and its constituents (fly ash brick units and mortar) obtained under compression and shear. Based on the experimental ...
Effect of Structural Bonding Patterns on Mechanical Characteristics of Clay Brick Masonry under Different Loadings Using Digital Image Correlation Technique
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper assesses the effect of two different structural bonding patterns on the mechanical characteristics of clay brick masonry assemblages under compression, flexure, and shear loading conditions. A 2D digital image ...
Out-of-Plane Performance of Lightweight AAC Infills within RC Frames Using Noncontact Full-Field Strain Measurement Technique
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The present research aimed at investigating the out-of-plane (OOP) behavior of autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) block masonry to further advance their application as structural infills considering different parameters ...
Empirical Models for Lateral Stiffness and Strength of Masonry-Infilled RC Frames Considering the Influence of Openings
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Lateral load behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) frames infilled with fly-ash brick masonry having various sizes of central openings was investigated experimentally. Results showed that the infilled frames with openings ...
