This paper presents a numerical study on the force-deformation behaviour of masonry spandrels supported on arches which are analysed using simplified micro models. The model is validated against results from quasi-static cyclic tests on masonry spandrels. ...
This paper presents the results of an experimental campaign on masonry spandrels. Within this campaign four masonry spandrels were subjected to quasi-static cyclic loading. Two different spandrel configurations were tested. The first configuration comprise ...
Most residential buildings that were constructed during the last century in Switzerland are 2-6 storey unreinforced masonry (URM) structures. At the beginning of the century, houses were constructed with timber floors and small bricks. This type of constru ...
In unreinforced masonry (URM) walls the vertical piers are connected by horizontal spandrel elements. Numerical simulations have shown that spandrels influence significantly the global wall behaviour under seismic loading. Despite their importance, experim ...
In this paper, a numerical model for the pushover analysis of in-plane loaded unreinforced masonry walls is presented. For the analysis of the walls, which consist of vertical piers connected by horizontal masonry spandrels, an equivalent frame model is ad ...
Unreinforced masonry (URM) walls comprise vertical piers and horizontal spandrels, which together form the lateral load resisting system. Whereas past research yielded significant advances in the understanding of the force-deformation characteristics of ma ...
Spandrel elements in unreinforced brick masonry buildings with timber floors consist of a masonry spandrel supported by either a timber lintel or a masonry arch. When subjected to seismic loading, the force-deformation relationship of such spandrel element ...
