Abstract:
A comprehensive understanding of the concrete block masonry’s mesostructure on its macroscopic mechanical behavior is meaningful for modern masonry. The mesoscale numerical method provides an extremely powerful analyzing tool for this problem. However, it is still difficult to analyze the mesomodel efficiently due to a large number of operating processes caused by the components’ nonlinear mechanical properties. An efficient finite-element-method-based mesoscale approach for concrete block masonry was introduced in this paper. The benchmark test results obtained show that this approach is able

In order to improve the shear behavior of hollow concrete block masonry, precast concrete anti-shear blocks were proposed to enhance the shear strength of hollow concrete block masonry. Four groups of hollow concrete block masonry triplets with precast concrete anti-shear blocks were tested under shear loading, and their behaviors were compared with a control group. The results show that as the height of precast concrete anti-shear blocks increases, the shear strength of the masonry increases. The maximum shear strength of masonry triplets with precast concrete anti-shear blocks was 234.48 per

Abstract:
Reinforced concrete buildings with masonry infill are vulnerable in earthquakes primarily because the masonry walls often fail due to out-of-plane forces and can trigger soft-story collapses. In order to prevent these failures, many engineers in the Caribbean have partially reinforced the infill walls and connected them to the reinforced concrete frame. This forms a hybrid concrete-masonry structure. Hybrid concrete-masonry structures have the potential to improve the seismic performance of many structures across the globe, as they are an easy adaptation from traditional unreinforced masonry i

Based on 5 groups of specimens with C30 or C40 micro-aggregate concrete joints and dressed blocks, shear strength of the masonry is tested and analyzed, friction coefficients and empiric formulas of shear strength of the masonry are presented in this paper, design value of shear strength of the masonry is assessed and discussed.

Abstract:
One of the methods used to reduce the weight of a construction is by reducing the weight of the walls of the building. In such a case, a wall made of red brick has a volume weight of 1,500–2,000 kg/m3, and concrete masonry bricks made of CLC have a volume weight of 400–1,800 kg/m3. So, in comparison, concrete masonry bricks have a volume weight that is ≤ 50% of that of red brick. In the manufacturing of concrete masonry bricks, one variant is CLC (Cellular Lightweight Concrete), produced using a mixture of cement, sand, chemical admixture and water, with the filler material in the form of air

Abstract The durability of external thermal insulation composite systems and their resistance to wind load mainly depends on the resistance of plastic anchors by means of which the systems are fixed to the substrate. A large part of the facade walls are made of reinforced concrete and various types of masonry units. This article presents an experimental study of the resistance of plastic anchors for ETICS, with different types of base materials, typical of the facade walls of buildings implemented in Bulgaria.

Masonry units are the major building materials used in construction work. There are several masonry units available in the market today. Some of the widely used masonry units are burnt clay bricks, concrete blocks, fly ash blocks, compressed stabilized soil/earth blocks, geopolymer mud blocks, geopolymer concrete blocks, and so on. These blocks are used for the construction of load bearing structure. To bond two masonry units together, mortar plays a vital role. Fly ash based geopolymer mortar has been used in this study.

Masonry-Infilled Reinforced Concrete Frames are a very widespread structural typology all over the world for civil, strategic or productive uses. The damages due to these masonry panels can be life threatening to humans and can severely impact economic losses, as shown during past earthquakes. In fact, during a seismic event, most victims are caused by the collapse of buildings or due to nonstructural elements. The damage caused by an earthquake on nonstructural elements, i.e., those not belonging to the actual structural body of the building, is important for the purposes of a more general de

The paper analyses the single storey concrete block masonry experimental model with the software LS-DYNA, using winfrith concrete material model instead of masonry material. And the calculated results were compared with the test results. The comparison indicates that the crack propagation of masonry can be simulated better with winfrith material model, which can be used i

Abstract:
Masonry construction is the most widely used building method in the world. Concrete masonry is relatively low in cost due to the vast availability of aggregates used within the production process. These aggregate materials are not always reliable for structural use. One of the principal issues associated with masonry is the brittleness of the unit. When subject to seismic loads, the brittleness of the masonry magnifies. In regions with high seismic activity and unspecified building codes or standards, masonry housing has developed into a death trap for countless individuals. A common approach

Modeling of masonry confinement has been usually derived from concrete confinement, which was deeply tested in the last decades. However concrete and masonry have some crucial differences, e.g., ordinary concrete performance can be usually fully defined by the cylindrical compressive strength, while masonry does not. In the present work, a failure criterion is considered on a solid mechanics base. Such criteria are useful not only to introduce non-uniform stress states, as those developed in non-axisymmetric confined elements, but also to be implemented in FEM. The validity of the adopted fail

The compressive strength of concrete block masonry is dependent upon the unit compressive strength, the type of unit, the mortar and the form of masonry construction (Mirza et al. 1995). The design codes allow masonry compressive strength to be established (or better: estimated) by calculation, from tests, or from tabulated values. In this way the current European masonry standard EN 1996: Part 1-1 (LST EN 1996-1-1) tabulates the masonry strength for concrete blocks with thin layers of mortar.
