Reinforced concrete frames with unreinforced masonry infill walls represent a widely
adopted building system. During seismic events, infill walls, usually considered as non …

The in-plane contribution of infill walls on the structural response of infilled frame structures
is an important problem and many research initiatives, via experimental and numerical …

Masonry is an anisotropy structure due to the presence of different components within the
assembly. Although, the concepts of concrete modeling are applicable to fully grouted …

The behavior of masonry-infilled reinforced concrete frames under cyclic lateral loading is
complicated because a number of different failure mechanisms can be induced by the frame …

During the last decades, several macro-models have been proposed for the modelling of the
infill panels' contribution to the lateral strength of frames. Despite all this effort, a robust …

This paper presents the shake‐table tests of a 2/3‐scale, three‐story, two‐bay, reinforced
concrete frame infilled with unreinforced masonry walls. The specimen is representative of …

The important contribution of infill walls in the resistance of earthquake loads is documented
along with a presentation of the behavior modes of the infill and the bounding frame …

Infilled frames are usually modelled in the context of global building analysis using
simplified procedures without considering the aspects resulting from the interaction between …

This paper presents a state-of-the-art review of the nonlinear modelling techniques available
today for describing the structural behaviour of masonry infills and their interaction with …

This article presents the results of an experimental campaign on the in-plane behavior of
masonry infill walls. Four tests were performed on large-scale specimens to evaluate the …
