Behaviour of masonry lateral loaded walls made with sediment-based bricks from the Usumacinta river (Mexico)

A feasibility study on Usumacinta River sediment-based bricks for resilient housing adapted to both climate change and seismic risks is performed on laterally loaded reduced-scale walls. Mortar formulations with different volume ratios of lime and sand (2/1, 1/2, 1/4, 1/6) are prepared while differe...
