Experimental and Numerical Study on the Seismic Performance of Prefabricated Reinforced Masonry Shear Walls

Experimental and Numerical Study on the Seismic Performance of Prefabricated Reinforced Masonry Shear Walls

The seismic performance of prefabricated reinforced concrete block masonry shear walls (PRMSWs) was studied. Five PRMSWs were tested under cyclic loading to evaluate the effect of the axial compression ratio and the distribution of the vertical rebar on the inelastic behavior. Based on the experimen...
