Abstract. The discussion of the compressive strength of masonry in chapter 2 related to short piers or columns, axially loaded. The strength of a wall of a given type will be influenced by the eccentricity of loading and the slenderness ratio, which in turn depend on the geometry of the building, the relative stiffnesses of the walls and floors, the nature of the joints between them and the.
Masonry is a construction material that has been used along the years as a structural or non-structural component in buildings. Masonry can be described as a composite material composed by different units, diverse types of arrangements with or without mortar, being use in the most ancient vernacular buildings to the ultimate new technologies applied in the construction. Research in the.
The aim of Cement and Concrete Research is to publish the best research on the materials science and engineering of cement, cement composites, mortars, concrete and other allied materials that incorporate cement or other mineral binders. In doing so, the journal will focus on reporting major results of research on the properties and performance of cementitious materials; novel experimental.
In this paper a methodology for retrofitting unreinforced masonry buildings, aimed to gradually transform the ancient masonry building into a modern code-conforming building was proposed. This approach has been directly applied to a real case study of an existing masonry building located in Poggio Picenze (LAquila, Italy) and really damaged during the 2009 LAquila earthquake. The obtained.
This special issue on “Masonry Buildings: Research and Practice” is intended to address and promote the discussion related to the different topics to do with the use of masonry in the construction sciences and in practice, including theory and research, numerical approaches and technical applications in new works, and repair actions and interventions in the built environment, connecting.
The objective of this research was to analyze the effect of the quality of the grout injection on the shear response of FRCM strengthened stone masonry panels. Results from an experimental campaign, where stone masonry specimens were subject to diagonal compression tests, are therefore presented in this paper. Two samples were subject to grout injection and one of them was strengthened with.
