“…Simple relations are suggested to estimate the modulus of elasticity of bricks, mortar, and masonry as 300, 200, and 550 times their compressive strengths, respectively. Sawko and Rouf (1984) [8] presented an analytical method for finding axial and bending stiffness of masonry walls by taking parabolic variation of stress-strain curves for masonry in compression based on past experimental studies. Bennett et al (1997) [9] showed that the masonry prism strength has a linear relationship with the compressive strength of bricks, and that the prism strength for loading perpendicular to the bed joint can be conservatively estimated as three-tenths of the brick compressive strength.…”

Performance of masonry is normally attributed to compressive strength of individual units, water absorption of individual units, strength of masonry mortar and the bond between mortar and individual units. Many researches in the past have contributed towards the bond strength and relevance of compressive strength of mortar in achieving good bonds. However, the quality of bricks available in India significantly vary from region the region. Thus, a need is felt in understanding bond strength of masonry. In this paper three types of mortars(total nine combinations), two types of bricks (red clay brick and fly ash brick) are considered, tests such as compressive strength, water absorption of the bricks, compressive strength of various mortar combinations, flexure bond strength and shear bond strength are presented. Failure patterns of the masonry units are also discussed. Results of the two tests show noticeable variation in bond strengths, however the shear bond strength has significant relationship with the compressive strength of mortar. The research outcome also points towards using bricks in saturated condition for achieving adequate performance.

“…The experimental results reported in the literature (Powell and Hodgkinson [1], Priestley and Elder [2], Naraine and Sinha [3], Pume [4], Mojsilović [5]) and the various deformation curves that have thus far been adopted in theoretical studies of instability (Frish-Fay [7], Sawko and Rouf [8], La Mendola and Papia [9], Mura [10,11]) differ to a certain extent.…”

In this paper the stability condition of uniform cantilevered masonry piers, subjected to eccentric concentrated load, is investigated, considering materials with nonlinear (parabolic) stress-strain law under compression. The analytical solution is obtained by integrating the nonlinear differential equation of the deflection curve using the Taylor series method. Depending on load intensity, on the height-to-depth ratio and initial eccentricity of the applied load, a column can fail owing to elastic instability or because the masonry at the fixed section has attained, or exceeded, the allowable compressive or tensile stress.
