  Seismic Resistance Evaluation of Unreinforced Masonry Buildings
 
 
Titel: Seismic Resistance Evaluation of Unreinforced Masonry Buildings
Auteur: Ali, Qaisar
Naeem, Akhtar
Verschenen in: Journal of earthquake engineering
Paginering: Jaargang 11 (2007) nr. 2 pagina's 133-146
Jaar: 2007-03
Inhoud: The article presents seismic resistance evaluation study of unreinforced brick masonry buildings. The study was carried out as part of the Ph.D. research work of the first author. As part of the study, in addition to the standard laboratory tests, a dynamic field test was carried out on single-story, single-room unreinforced masonry structure. The model structure was tested in actual ground conditions against simulated earthquake vibrations produced through controlled explosions, especially designed for this purpose. Based on masonry properties accrued from lab and field tests, finite element models of the brickwork system were also studied. Finally, the software named, “Shear Damage Index (SDI),” developed as part of this study, was used to plot contours of shear demand (shear stress) to shear capacity (shear strength) ratio on the numerical model and hence to identify potential weak zones in the model for possible strengthening of those locations.
