A Practice-Oriented Proposal to Consider the Flange Effect in Equivalent Frame Modeling of Masonry Buildings
This paper focuses on the so-called “flange effect” in unreinforced masonry buildings when the connection among walls is good, thus forming a 3D assembly of intersecting piers (with L-, C-, T-, or I-shaped cross-sections). Given the direction of the horizontal seismic action, the presence of such fl...
