The relevant losses determined by recent earthquakes stressed the vulnerability of historical
masonry constructions towards horizontal seismic actions, therefore highlighting the need …

Unpreventable constructional defects are the main issues in the case of steel Moment-
Resisting Frames (MRFs) that mostly occur in the rigidities of beam-to-column connections …

This paper presents the fragility assessment of non-seismically designed steel moment
frames with masonry infills. The assessment considered the effects of multiple earthquakes …

This study aims to propose a multi-strut macro-model, capable of simulating the overall force-
displacement behaviour of infilled frames with various opening configurations. For this …

In this study, the effect of masonry infill walls on the progressive collapse mechanisms of
steel frames is investigated. Three two-story by four-bay steel frames are designed: a bare …

The susceptibility of masonry structures subjected to in-plane loads is determined by the
failure mechanisms that might occur, which are governed by the material and geometric …

The study described and summarised in this paper was aimed at developing a framework for
the definition of force-displacement relationships for single-strut models for masonry infill …

Seismic performance of a representative single-story confined unreinforced masonry school
building in Tehran, Iran is evaluated by means of incremental dynamic analyses according …

Recent earthquakes have highlighted the high vulnerability of the industrial structures that
are not specifically designed for accounting seismic forces. Among them, a widespread …

In this paper, the in-plane (IP), out-of-plane (OOP), and IP/OOP interactional behavior of
masonry-infilled steel moment-resisting frames (MRFs) are investigated through calibrated …
