Investigation of Interfacial Interaction of Concrete Masonry Assembly Subjected to Monotonic Loading

Abstract

AbstractConcrete masonry prisms are composed of various materials, and the properties of and interaction among these materials play a crucial role in the overall performance of masonry structure. Previous studies considered testing complete prisms, which ...Practical ApplicationsThis study provides critical understanding of the interfacial interactions among grout, mortar, and concrete blocks in masonry assemblages, and has several practical applications for structural engineering. The findings enhance ...
