Abstract: Brick masonry structures are commonly used in world because of its simplicity and economy. However, it is susceptible to failure in earthquakes because of the bricks weak interlocking bonds and brick masonry structures designed mainly against gravity load demand. Therefore, in recent years research work has been conducted to confine the unreinforced brick masonry with reinforced concrete tie beams and column, to improve its seismic performance. This enhances both the lateral resistance and stability of the entire structure, to perform as one mass unit against the lateral forces. Howe

In principle, the main construction of the non-engineered building in Indonesia is the wooden structure. It can be seen from traditional houses in Indonesia. However, In the last two centuries, the use of brick masonry as wall component has been becoming the primary material. Another side, some places in Indonesia are the seismic areas and earthquake-prone areas. Learning from the earthquake that has happened in the last ten years, the building that used clay brick for masonry wall mostly suffered damage and destruction when subjected to a relatively high intensity of the earthquake.

Brick masonry is a traditional building material widely used loading-bearing or partition walls in various building structures. The detailed distinctive modelling of brick and mortar of a realistic masonry structure or a structure with masonry infilled walls are usually not possible due to the computational cost. In this paper, a homogenized dynamic material model which including the damage of brick and mortar and strain rate effect is developed based on dynamic test results of brick and mortar.

Brick masonry does not exhibit much capacity to resist lateral loads and hence the masonry suffers heavy damage during earthquakes, which impart lateral loads to structures. In the Bhuj earthquake of Jan 26, 2001, that occurred in majority of masonry structures failed because they were built with un-reinforced brick masonry. The EBC code of practice for brick masonry, suggests the use of lintel band and roof band that introduce a rigid box-type behavior which will help the structure to improve its performance against seismic loads.

<p>The supply of many traditional building materials will face considerable procurement difficulties in the near future, whether due to material shortages, changes in industrial production processes or rising costs of CO2 emissions. The development of new substitute materials is therefore urgently needed and should be a high priority in the construction industry.</p><p>The shortage of gypsum and gypsum plasterboard due to the conversion of coal-fired power plants to renewable energy generation will be eminent due to the lack of flue gas desulphurization and its by-product gyp

Abstract:
The extensive network of engineering protection of the territory of the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra against the impact of hazardous processes (landslides, flooding) includes more than 5 km of retaining walls (brick, concrete, pile-based) and about 12 km of drainage networks (tunnel, gallery, and radial types). The effectiveness of the drainage adit systems (DAS) on the Upper Lavra and the radial drainage on the territory of the Guest Yard (Inn Courtyard) of the Lower Lavra was analyzed. The paper proposes an assessment of the efficiency of drainage adit systems according to such criteria as the specif
