“…For unreinforced structures, Wilding [5] studied the impacts of load history on in-plane forcedisplacement response characteristics. Other researchers, like Taesung et al [6], Abul Hasnat [7], and Gatta et al [8], have utilized numerical simulations and theoretical analysis to understand the cyclic shaking, in-plane static deformation characteristics, and the nonlinear static and dynamic response of walls. Wilding et al [9] proposed a theoretical formula for the shear modulus to elastic modulus ratio and explored its influence on the deformation of walls.…”

Situated on the northern bank of the Qiantang River estuary, the ancient seawall serves not only as a national cultural relic but also as an active agent in flood and tide prevention. This seawall features a trapezoidal cross-section and is constructed with layered stone blocks and a sticky rice mortar. To investigate the load-bearing and deformation attributes of this ancient structure, a scaled-down specimen with a ratio of 1:4 was created. Monotonic and cyclic vertical loadings were then applied to the wall’s top surface. During these loading procedures, measurements of the loading force, seawall displacement, and front and side deformation fields were taken. Experimental findings reveal that the seawall tends to lean towards the soil-retaining side under vertical loading. After ten loading cycles, the vertical rigidity of the wall was reduced by 10%. Upon application of a uniformly distributed vertical load of 1.6 MPa at the top of the wall, significant cracks began to materialize in the blocks at the base of the seawall. When the loading at the top increased to 2 MPa, a vertical crack that cut through the mortar layer at the wall’s center was observed. By comparing it to a three-dimensional finite element model, the load-bearing and deformation characteristics of the ancient seawall observed in the experiments were confirmed, which could contribute to the scientifically informed conservation and protection of the seawall.

“…The presence of ferrocement significantly enhanced the post-cracking strength, increasing it by nearly 1.6 times the failure load. The principal finding of this test is the demonstration of the substantial post-cracking strength and displacement capacity of URM walls with ferrocement lamination [14]. In Şimşek's study conducted in 2018, four series of mortar samples were prepared to determine the mixing ratios of the masonry mortar for use in fabricating model brick walls and plaster mortar for reinforcing the resulting samples.…”

The strengthening of masonry structures is of paramount importance due to their inherent lack of tensile elements, rendering them susceptible to tensile stresses induced by horizontal loads and the resultant substantial damage. Consequently, this study aims to develop a reinforcement system for the strengthening of historical masonry structures by using mortars devoid of cement and modern pozzolan. Experiments were conducted on masonry walls unreinforced and reinforced by a one-sided Khorasan mortar with steel mesh. Initially, six masonry brick walls constructed using Khorasan lime mortar were prepared. Subsequently, after a waiting period of six months, Khorasan plaster mortar, reinforced with steel mesh, was applied to three masonry walls on one side. Following an 18-month waiting period, all samples were subjected to testing in an experimental setup designed and manufactured for this purpose. The wall reinforcement resulted in a significant increase, with the average peak load by 215.73%, and the average displacement by 48.82%. The experimental shear force on unreinforced walls was found to be 41.23% lower than Eurocode-6 and 1.41% lower than TBDY-2018. In the case of one-sided reinforced walls, the experimental shear force was 9.94% lower than Eurocode-6 and 6.16% lower than TBDY-2018. This form of strengthening not only obviates the use of potentially damaging cement in historical buildings but also extends the lifespan of the reinforced structures.
