Abstract:
Building material innovations in various interlocking concrete block masonry from local materials to withstand lateral earthquake forces is an exciting issue in masonry wall research. The block hook has an advantage in the interlocking system's invention to withstand loads in the in-plane and out-of-plane orientations commonly required by the masonry walls against earthquake forces. Reviews of the investigation of in-plane and out-of-plane masonry walls have rarely been found in previous studies. In this paper, the results of a series of experimental tests with different interlocking models in resisting the simultaneous in-plane shear and out-of-plane bending actions on concrete blocks are presented. This paper presents a research investigation of various interlocking concrete blocks' mechanical properties with different hook thicknesses. Discussion of the trends mentioned above and their implications towards interlocking concrete block mechanical properties is provided.

Abstract:
Most of the seismic damage of existing traditional buildings is due to the absence of practical beam and column structures as the main reinforcement of the building. While a masonry wall as a structural component is commonly negligible due to their relatively low strength in contributing to the frame structure. As a result, when the earthquake struck, the building collapsed, and the ruins of building elements hit the occupants seriously and caused many deaths. This paper presents the results of preliminary research on the experimental investigation of interlocking concrete block for the masonry wall applied to non-engineered earthquake-resistant buildings. The interlocking between concrete blocks is expected to contribute to the strength of the masonry wall in resisting the loads, either in-plane or out-of-plane directions. The novelty of this type of concrete block lies in the uniqueness of the interlocking shape, making it effective in withstanding the earthquake load. This research focuses on the testing of interlocking concrete block units in withstanding loads in the direction and perpendicular to the field and equipped with testing the compressive strength of the wall and diagonal shear strength. The results produce interlocking models of concrete block contribute to better strength than ordinary clay bricks for the masonry wall.

Abstract:
Masonry is one of the most popular building materials. It has many excellent material properties and proven durability. Over time, masonry structures have evolved from massive walls, which work mainly through compression, to more slender walls, which could also experience tension and shear. Earthquake-induced tensile and shear stresses often exceed the capacity of traditional unreinforced masonry resulting in substantial damage and failure. A new mortar-less masonry system called semi-interlocking masonry (SIM) is presented in this paper. It has reduced stiffness and susceptibility to damage and utilized a special method of interlocking bricks that allows relative sliding of brick courses in-plane of a wall and prevents out-of-plane relative movement of bricks. The paper reviews the research on SIM to date and identifies new research opportunities in this area.

Abstract:
An innovative interlocking compressed earth block, called interlocking compressed earth block developed at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, was developed for structural masonry. The locking mechanism of the interlocking compressed earth block developed at Shanghai Jiao Tong University completely depends on the grout in the vertical holes. Therefore, there is no gap between the interlocking key and the blocks, which increases the wall stability and reduces the block manufacturing costs. Experimental studies on the mechanical behavior of the unit (the block) and the masonry (prism constructed with a dry interface) were performed in accordance with the related standards. Soil samples from the northern Gansu Province of China were collected and studied. Small cylindrical samples were tested to determine the compressive and splitting tensile strength. Subsequently, the compressive strength of the prisms with three dry-stack blocks and the shear behavior of the masonry through the triplet test were investigated. The results show that the compressive and shear strengths meet the related standards. This work may provide a valuable structural system for low-cost, eco-friendly dwelling in developing countries.

Abstract:
Interlocking soil blocks are on of modern techniques of house construction due to its durability. The use of these blocks fits suitably within the production cost and environmental quality as an alternative to fired bricks. This paper reports the result investigation done on walls made using interlocking soil blocks. Three types of walls with different combination of reinforcements were tested. The performance is assessed in terms of cracking patterns, failure modes and load-deflection characteristic. Results show that the ductility of all walls are good and wall with post-tensioned bars performed the best. The post tensioned walls are able to deflect up to 42% without any failure compare to non pre stressed wall. The walls with combination of reinforcement and post –tensioned systems are more ductile compare to walls with reinforcement only. It is concluded, post-tensioned wall developed using interlocking soil blocks can be used in reinforced and post-tensioned masonry application instead of conventional brick masonry.

Abstract:
Biaxial Interlocking Block (BIB) is a new interlocking block system introduced in this research work. BIB was designed and expected to have the capacity to resist the biaxial load. In this research, the production of BIB was introduced, and the properties of BIB as the individual and walling unit was identified. The features of BIB in terms of density, compressive strength and MOE was identified. To define the impact BIB to the masonry wall capacity, nine walls panel and nine prisms including Solid Block (SB) and cement sand brick (CSB) have been constructed and tested under concentric compressive load. From the data obtained, the BIB walling system was calculated and identified. All the properties values of BIB masonry obtained compared with SB and CSB masonry values. The relationship of masonry properties by different types of masonry unit was also identified and discuss. From all the data and analysis carried out, it is found that the features of masonry unit have influenced the walling properties of the constructed wall. The higher compressive strength of masonry unit will enhance the capacity of the masonry walls. From this research, it is also found that BIB is having excellent properties as a walling unit as compare to SB and CSB wall. A linear relationship between the compressive strength of the samples regardless of the changing in masonry unit compressive strength has been found appropriate with the same slenderness ratio. This work offers valuable data of BIB to the masonry walls properties under compressive load.

Abstract:
Seismic Design Manual for Interlocking Compressed Earth Blocks Nicholas Edwards Kennedy This thesis presents a comprehensive seismic design manual to be used to design and construct simple Interlocking Compressed Earth Block (ICEB) structures in seismically active regions. ICEBs are earth blocks made primarily of soil and stabilized with cement. They have female and male stud mechanisms designed to interlock when stacked, eliminating the need for mortar. The blocks can accept reinforcement and grout after they are placed. While ICEB construction is similar to conventional masonry construction, current design code standards for masonry only partially capture the actual behavior of ICEB structures. This thesis seeks to supplement the existing masonry design procedures and tailor them for use with ICEBs. Additionally, this paper presents a preliminary design of ICEB shear walls for a disaster reconstruction project in the Philippines. While many structures in Southeast Asia and the Malay Archipelago are constructed from earthen blocks, very few are engineered. Of those that are, a lack of formal design guidance specific to ICEB construction leaves most engineers and designers with conventional concrete masonry design practices, some of which are not applicable for use with ICEBs.

Abstract:
This thesis presents results from testing of interlocking compressed earth block (CEB) masonry shear walls. CEBs are low strength earth masonry units sometimes stabilized with cement or lime. The interlocking compressed earth blocks (ICEBs) used in this experiment are dry stacked interlocking hollow units, which can be reinforced and grouted after they are laid. Although significant research has been undertaken to optimize the material properties of CEBs, little has been done to investigate the performance of structural systems currently being built using this technology. Test results are reported for three 1800 mm x 1800 mm wall specimens constructed with cement stabilized ICEBs and subjected to cyclic in-plane lateral loading. Wall specifications were varied to identify the shear performance of partial and fully grouted walls, and to observe the performance of a flexure dominated wall panel. It was determined that the shear strength of fully grouted walls is significantly higher than that of partially grouted walls and calculation of capacity based on current ACI 530-08 masonry provisions significantly overestimates the shear strength of ICEB wall panels. Based on the observed performance, recommendations are made for limiting the calculated nominal shear strength in design. Results also indicate that calculations based on simple bending theory conservatively predict the flexural strength of a fully grouted ICEB wall. Discussion of ICEB material properties and recommendations for design and construction procedures are included.

Abstract:
Interlocking compressed earth blocks (ICEBs) are cement stabilized soil blocks that allow for dry stacked construction. The incomplete understanding of the inelastic performance of ICEB building systems limits widespread acceptance of this structural system in earthquake prone areas. This thesis presents results from an experimental program designed to explore the behavior of ICEB walls, built according to current design practice in Indonesia and Thailand, and subjected to out-of-plane loading. A total of five reinforced and grouted ICEB walls were constructed and tested. Results from experimentation show the current masonry design code, ACI 530, adequately predicts the yield strength of these walls. However, ACI 530 grossly over-predicts the ICEB wall stiffness. All tests showed flexural behavior and failure, except for one wall. A brittle failure was observed in one wall before reaching the predicted flexural strength, prompting a suggested maximum shear tie spacing. The testing results provide useful data for developing analytical models that predicts the seismic behavior of ICEB walls under out-of-plane loading. A moment-curvature relationship was developed that accurately predicts the behavior of these walls in the elastic range as well as the inelastic range. By comparing the data provided by two walls of similar sizes, one including a pilaster and one without a pilaster, insight into stiffener elements was gained. Analysis of these two walls provides a limit on the length and height of ICEB walls without stiffener elements to prevent significant structural damage during a seismic event. In all, conclusions based on experimental data from ICEB out-of-plane loading tests are aimed to provide suggestions for ICEB construction in areas of high-seismicity.

Earth is still used as a building material to construct houses in Africa. One of the most common techniques is the masonry of sun dried or kiln fired mud bricks with earth mortar. Although this technique is cheap and allows the self-construction, the bricks vary largely in shape, strength and durability. This leads to weak houses which suffer important damage during floods and seismic events. A solution which has been proposed in the last decades is the use of drystack masonry with stabilized interlocking compressed earth blocks (ICEB). These blocks are manufactured by compacting cement stabilized earth in a manual or hydraulic press into a mould and then air cured for 28 days. The resulting blocks present uniform shapes, higher values of strength and durability and lower embodied energy than the traditional bricks. The material properties of ICEBs has been researched extensively, but little has been concluded with respect to the structural behaviour of these masonry dry-stack systems. Motivated by the above reasons, this work focused on the study of ICEBs to be used in dry-stack masonry of one storey houses in regions with moderate seismicity. Malawi was selected as the case study country. The mechanical characterization of the masonry was made by first studying the material properties of the blocks. Parameters such as compression and flexural strength, the Young’s modulus and compressive and tensile fracture energy have been determined through laboratory tests. In a second phase, masonry specimens were tested to determine the compressive strength, shear behaviour of the dry joints and shear behaviour of full scale walls. Finally, to study the behaviour of a real structure under seismic action, a small masonry mock-up of a house was tested on a shaking table. The results of the tests showed that it is possible to produce ICEBs of sandy soils with sufficient strength. The tests of shear walls revealed that the shear strength of this masonry is low, but comparable to that of other earthen walls. The walls also showed high values of ductility and behaviour factor. The shaking table test showed that the mock-up resisted without significant damage peak ground accelerations (PGA) of 0.2 g, which are equivalent to those expected for frequent earthquakes in Malawi. It also showed that moderate damage can be expected for rare earthquakes with PGAs of 0.3 g and that near collapse would occur at almost twice that value. The behaviour factor was of 1.5, which is the maximum permitted by the Eurocode 8 for unreinforced masonry. The knowledge gained in the several phases of this work was used to develop a manual for building ICEB houses.
A terra tem sido usada como material de construção para a edificação de casas em África. Uma das técnicas mais comuns é a alvenaria de tijolos de terra, secos ao sol ou cozidos em forno, com argamassa de terra. Embora esta técnica seja barata e permita a auto-construção, os tijolos variam muito de forma, resistência e durabilidade. Isto leva a casas de fraca qualidade, que sofrem danos importantes em caso de inundação ou evento sísmico. Uma solução que tem sido proposta nas últimas décadas é a alvenaria de blocos de terra compactada com sistema de encaixe (ICEB). Estes blocos são produzidos por compactação de terra estabilizada com cimento numa prensa manual ou hidráulica e são deixados a curar ao ar. Os blocos resultantes apresentam formas uniformes, valores de resistência e durabilidade superiores e energia incorporada mais baixa que os tijolos tradicionais. As propriedades dos ICEBs tem sido investigada intensivamente, mas pouco tem sido concluído em relação à definição do comportamento estrutural destes sistemas de alvenaria de junta seca. Motivado pelas razões acima expostas, este trabalho focou-se no estudo de ICEBs para serem utilizados em alvenaria de junta seca de casas com um andar em regiões de sismicidade moderada. O Malawi foi o país escolhido como caso de estudo. A caracterização mecânica da alvenaria foi conseguida estudando-se primeiro as propriedades materiais dos blocos. Foram determinadas experimentalmente várias propriedades mecânicas, tais como resistência à compressão e flexão, módulo de elasticidade, e energia de fratura em compressão e tração. Numa segunda fase, foram ensaiados provetes de alvenaria para caracterizar-se a resistência à compressão, comportamento ao corte das juntas secas e comportamento de corte de paredes à escala real. Finalmente, um pequeno modelo de uma casa foi ensaiado em mesa sísmica para se estudar o comportamento de uma estrutura real sob ação sísmica. Os resultados dos ensaios mostraram que é possível produzir ICEBs com resistência suficiente, a partir de solos arenosos. Os ensaios das paredes à escala real revelaram que a resistência ao corte da alvenaria é baixa, mas comparável à de outras paredes de terra. As paredes também apresentaram valores elevados da ductilidade e do fator de comportamento. O ensaio de mesa sísmica mostrou que o modelo resistiu sem danos significativos a acelerações pico do solo (PGA) de 0.2 g, que são equivalentes às esperadas em sismos frequentes no Malawi. Também se mostrou que podem ser esperados danos moderados para sismos raros com PGAs de 0.3 g e que o quase colapso só ocorreria para cerca de o dobro deste valor. O fator de comportamento foi de 1.5, que é o máximo permitido pelo Eurocódigo 8 para alvenaria não reforçada. O conhecimento obtido das várias fases deste trabalho foi utilizado para se desenvolver um manual para a construção de casas de ICEBs.

This thesis presents the findings on empirical study of dry-stack masonry. Dry-stack masonry refers to a method of building masonry walls, where most of the masonry units are laid without mortar in the joints. Of late (since mid eighties) in modern construction, dry-stacking or mortarless technology is increasingly becoming popular because of its advantages. The construction industry is acknowledging the need to accelerate the masonry construction process, as the traditional method is labour intensive and hence slower due to the presence of a large number of mortar joints. Early attempts were made to increase the size of masonry units (block instead of brick), thereby reducing the number of mortar joints, wherein the use of bedding mortar imposed constraints on the number of courses to be constructed in a day. Elimination of bedding mortar accelerates construction; thereby reducing cost, variation due to workmanship and generally small pool of skilled labour is required in dry stacking. Dry-stack masonry is a relatively new technology not yet regulated in the code of practice and therefore very limited information on the structural behaviour of the masonry is available. This project is based on the investigation of the HYDRAFORM dry-stack system, which utilises compressed soil-cement interlocking, blocks. The system is now widely used in Africa, Asia and South America. The main objective of the project was to establish through physical testing the capacity of the system to resist lateral load (e.g. wind load), vertical load and dynamic load such as earthquake loading. In the first phase of the project investigations were conducted under static loading where series of full-scale wall panels were constructed in the laboratory and tested under lateral loading, and others were tested under vertical loading to establish the mode of failure and load capacity of the system. Series of control tests were also conducted by testing series of wallettes to establish failure mechanism of the units and to establish the flexural strength of the system. Finally the test results were used for modelling, where load prediction models for the system under vertical loading and under lateral loading were developed. The theoretical load prediction models were tested against the test results and show good agreement. After the load capacity was established the next step in the study was to further improve the system for increased capacity particularly under dynamic loading. The normal Hydraform system was modified by introducing a conduit, which allows introduction of reinforcements. Series of dry-stack seismic systems were constructed and initially tested under static lateral loading to establish the lateral load capacity. The second Phase of the project was to investigate the structural behaviour and performance of the Hydraform system under seismic loading. A shaking table of 20 tonnes payload, (4m x 4m) in plan was designed and fabricated. A full-scale plain dry-stack masonry house was constructed on the shaking table and subjected to seismic base motions. The shaking table test was performed using sine wave signals excitations starting from low to very severe intensity. A conventional masonry test structure of similar parameters was also constructed on the table and tested in a similar manner for comparison. The tests were conducted using a frequency range of 1Hz to 12Hz and the specimens were monitored for peak accelerations and displacements. For both specimens the initial base motion was 0.05g. The study established the mode of failure of the system; the structural weak points of unreinforced dry-stack masonry, the general structural response of the system under seismic condition and the failure load. The plain dry-stack masonry failed at 0.3g and the conventional masonry failed at 0.6g. Finally recommendations for further strengthening of system to improve its lateral capacity were proposed.

Experimental study of five full scale masonry wall panels subjected to prescibed pre-compressive vertical loading and increasing in-plane lateral loading is discussed. All five walls were constructed using interlocking mortarless load bearing hollow concrete blocks. The behaviour of wall in term of deflections along the wall height, shear strength, mortarless joint behaviour and local and overall failures under increasing in-plane lateral loading and pre-compressive vertical loading are reported and analysed. Simple strut-and-tie models are also developed to estimate the ultimate in-plane lateral capacity of the panel walls tested. The results indicate that, as the pre-compressive load increases, the in-plane lateral load capacity of walls increases. All walls tested failed due to diagonal shear and/or moderate toe crushing depending on the level of the pre-compressive load. The proposed strut-and-tie models were able to give reasonable predictions of the walls tested.

Abstract. This project reveals about the detailed investigation of eco-friendly interlocking masonry units. Interlocking between individual units is enabled by providing grooves, male and female joint on them. Hence less mortar is required for construction of masonry units while using these interlocking bricks. Various trails and tests will be conducted on these interlocking bricks by addition of various materials such as E-wastes, coir pith and saw dust in clay soil. Hence the cost of these masonry units will be reduced. All these various mixtures are mixed at different proportions and ideal mixture are to be found then the grooves are to be altered by male and female joints. Further in addition of clay and sand, wooden powder and coir pith are to be added so that while burning of these masonry units results in good colour and more strength (35% improved strength while comparing to an A-Class brick). Optimum ratio with minimal cost and max efficiency with sustainability to the environment is recommended to the market. In the past year there was a spread of pandemic COVID 19. Precautious measures are taken to avoid the spread of this pandemic. By considering this situation a chemical is to be added in this masonry unit which will be acting as an disinfectious agent which will avoid the entry of various common viruses and bacteria like rhino viruses, salmonella. This ability of the masonry unit will last more than 24 months and beyond. And this can also be replenished after specific period of time. These masonry units have less mortar consumption (70% less mortar consumption while comparing to an A-Class brick), more workability, disinfectious and accommodates waste materials. Hence it is considered to be eco-friendly and sustainable.
