For the first time are here presented to Dostoevsky scholars new facts concerning the masonic environment of the writer, who starting from his education in Chermak’s boarding school in 1834-1837 cultivated close relations of friendship with masons, some of them initiated even in 1840s (Apollon Grigorev), when masonry in Russia was officially forbidden, but nevertheless underground meetings continued. Reasons are given in support to the hypothesis, expressed for the first time by Tatiana Kasatkina in the middle of 1990s, of the possibility for Dostoevsky to have been a mason during the 1840s. W

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

Non-fired Interlocking compressed earth bricks (named Non-fired compressed earth bricks) use local materials to reduce the difficulties in transporting materials, saving energy and protecting environment, making them suitable for constructing walls in low-rise houses in mountainous areas. In the masonry made from non-fired compressed earth bricks does not require mortar as in traditional methods, but instead is interlocking. To enhance the bonding between the bricks and increase the masonry's load-bearing capacity, vertical ribs are formed by filling the cylindrical hollow holes in the bricks

Abstract:

The evaluation of the shear behavior of masonry walls is a first fundamental step for the assessment of existing masonry structures in seismic zones. However, due to the complexity of modelling experimental behavior and the wide variety of masonry types characterizing historical structures, the definition of masonry’s mechanical behavior is still a critical issue. Since the possibility to perform in situ tests is very limited and often conflicting with the needs of preservation, the characterization of shear masonry behavior is generally based on reference values of mechanical properties provi

Abstract Major residential construction projects adopt clay bricks as masonry, which can contribute to high carbon emission, primarily due to their high embodied carbon. Furthermore, the adoption of conventional masonry, including clay bricks, may lead to the use of high amounts of mortar and contribute to a lot of wastage. Therefore, an alternative system that can potentially replace conventional masonry is required to reduce the wastage as well as carbon emission. Interlocking blocks, which adopt a lock and key system has the potential to replace conventional masonry as they employ locally a

New materials and products for masonry are constantly being developed and construction details and implementation procedures are being resolved. Digitization and the introduction of automation in the masonry process (in prefabrication halls or on-site robotic bricklaying) are also an integral part of the development of the masonry construction industry. The topic of the following paper is a summary of problematic construction details of masonry buildings, i.e., the solution of the plinth co

Abstract:

Masonry structure is heterogeneous and has been widely used in building and construction engineering. The study on cracking pattern of masonry structure is significant to engineering design. Many previous investigations on the failure process of masonry structure are usually based on the homogenization technique by selecting a typical unit of masonry to serve as a representative volume. This kind of numerical analysis neglects the mesoscopic heterogeneous structure, which cannot capture the full cracking process of masonry structures. The cracking process of masonry structure is dominantly aff

Abstract:

When loads are applied to a masonry structure, viscoelastic behaviour is exhibited where the response can be divided into two distinct parts: an instantaneous elastic part and a time-dependent part. With the change in masonry construction during the last century, the latter portion of the response is becoming more important in the design of masonry structures. The effects of mortar type, stress level, age at loading, moisture condition, and masonry strength on the creep behaviour of clay masonry structures are examined. The results of a continuing experimental programme, begun in 1988, were us

Abstract:

Stone masonry with micro-aggregate concrete joints has been widely used in long span arch bridges in China. However, the mechanical properties of this kind of high-strength masonry have been seldom studied. This paper presents compressive strength test study of eight groups of masonry specimens, which consist of C30 or C40 micro-aggregate concrete joints and five kinds of dressed stone blocks. The masonry mechanical behavior is described and test results are analyzed. An empiric formula of the masonry compressive strength is obtained. Finally, design value of masonry compressive strength is as

Abstract:

For the past decades the importance of structural rehabilitation of historical buildings, in order to preserve the cultural heritage, has increased considerably. The weak masonry (made from bricks and bounded with low-strength mortars) were created using mortars which, depending on different external factors, were degraded and there are necessary urgent rehabilitation interventions in order to assure the masonrys durability by protecting the joints with new, compatible and reversible materials and techniques (according to Venice charter requirements). In order to increase the durability charac

Abstract:

The majority of load-bearing masonry structures of historic buildings are built of mixed or stone masonry composed of regular or irregular (so-called quarry) masonry units – bricks, sedimentary and metamorphic rock – possessing often very different physical and mechanical characteristics. The identification of residual mechanical properties of stone or mixed masonry of irregular walling units requires the application of a suitable diagnostic method, the assessment of the phase of degradation processes and the choice of an appropriate probabilistic model for the strength of mixed masonry.

Abstract:

There has been recent increased use of earth for construction of buildings in developed countries, largely because of concerns with the environmental impact and embodied carbon from fired bricks and cement-based products. Of all forms of earth construction, the widest impact on modern construction is likely to come from commercially produced unfired earth masonry where large-scale production can significantly reduce costs. While there are benefits to using earth masonry, structural design with earth masonry raises some specific issues that are not necessarily relevant to other forms of masonry

This paper analyses the stress state of sintered hollow block infilled insulation masonry under practical conditions. Based on the fact that the static loading performance of the new masonry block can be used in masonry structure, the comparative experiment research focused on the seismic performance between masonry works made of the new block and traditional sintered perforated brick with horizontal and vertical load working simultaneously, damage regulars and corrective measures are key points. Results show the mechanical performance of the new block masonry is worse than sintered perforated

However, each major natural disaster in India has exposed several ‘chinks in the armour’ linked to both of these widely employed construction techniques. Enter confined masonry.
