Macro-Modelling of Combined in-Plane and Out-of-Plane Seismic Response of Thin Strengthened Masonry Infills

Abstract: Some strengthening techniques, aimed to increase the infill Out-Of-Plane (OOP) resistance and its safety against OOP collapse, have been recently tested at the University of Padova. Based on this experimental work, a new infill macro-model consisting of two nonlinear fibre struts for each diagonal direction, able to predict the combined In-Plane/Out-Of-Plane (IP-OOP) seismic response of the panels, is proposed in this paper and calibrated on the abovementioned experimental results for thin clay masonry panels … Show more

“…In particular, thin clay masonry infill walls proved to be the most vulnerable due to their strong interaction between in-plane (IP) and out-of-plane (OOP) behavior. Specifically, the lateral deformation of the RC frame causes IP damage to the infill panel which, in turn, significantly reduces its OOP strength, thus increasing its vulnerability and probability of OOP collapse (Komaraneni et al, 2011;Donà et al, 2017Donà et al, , 2019. This was observed by various authors in the aftermath of significant earthquakes, among which the most recent are L'Aquila 2009-Italy (Bazzurro et al, 2009;Braga et al, 2011;Ricci et al, 2011), Lorca 2011-Spain (De Luca et al, 2014;Hermanns et al, 2014), Simav 2011-Turkey (Dogangün et al, 2013), Emilia 2012-Italy (Penna et al, 2014;Verderame et al, 2014), Kefalonia 2014-Greece (Manos et al, 2015), and Central Italy 2016 (Fragomeli et al, 2017;Masi et al, 2017).…”

“…Indeed, they are generally classified as non-structural elements, and there are still no clear standard indications on their modeling/verification procedures; therefore, they are often overlooked in the design phase. In particular, thin masonry infills are characterized by very brittle behavior and high IP/OOP response interaction [1,2,3,4,5]. Hence, they are easily damaged even at medium-low seismic intensities and are consequently responsible for high losses in building functionality and high repair costs [6].…”

“…The brittle behavior of clay masonry infill walls leads to an uncontrolled collapse that may occur without any warning, representing a serious hazard for human lives. Furthermore, the in-plane (IP) damage of the infill, induced by the RC frame deformation, yields to a reduction of the OOP strength, thus increasing the probability of infill out-of-plane ejection (Donà et al 2017(Donà et al , 2019. As a consequence, the seismic vulnerability of infill walls increases considering their combined IP/OOP response.…”
