Behavior of Partially Grouted Concrete Masonry Walls under Quasi-Static Cyclic Lateral Loading

Behavior of Partially Grouted Concrete Masonry Walls under Quasi-Static Cyclic Lateral Loading

Eight partially grouted (PG-RM) concrete masonry walls were tested to study the influence of the strength and width of blocks, the wall aspect ratio, the horizontal and vertical reinforcement ratio, and the presence of edge elements (flanges). The results were analyzed in terms of the failure mode,...
