“…These assumptions have already been made in the 40's and 60's when studying the stability of unreinforced masonry walls subjected to eccentric axial loads . Although such assumptions neglect the interaction between the mortar and the bricks as well as the finite compressive strength of the two materials, they result in a good level of accuracy in modelling the masonry behaviour for many configurations and boundary conditions . They were extensively used in the past to determine the axial force that triggers instability of unreinforced masonry piers and columns.…”

SummaryAn analytical model describing the flexural response of vertically spanning out-of-plane loaded unreinforced masonry walls is presented in this paper. The model is based on the second-order Euler-Bernoulli beam theory and captures important characteristics of the out-of-plane response of masonry walls that have been observed in experimental tests and from numerical studies but for which an analytical solution was still lacking: the onset and the evolution of cracking, the peak strength of the out-of-plane loaded walls, and the softening of the response due to P−Δ effects. The model is validated against experimental results, and the comparison shows that the model captures both the prepeak and postpeak response of the walls. From the analytical model of the force-displacement curve, a formula for the maximum out-of-plane strength of the walls is derived, which can be directly applied in engineering practice.

The Building Science Series disseminates technical information developed at the National Bureau of Standards on building materials, components, systems, and whole structures. The Series presents research results, test methods, and performance criteria related to the structural and environmental functions and the durability and safety characteristics of building elements and systems. These publications, similar in style and content to the NBS Building Materials and Structures Reports (1938-59), are directed toward the manufacturing, design, construction, and research segments of the building industry, standards organizations, and officials responsible for building codes. The material for this Series originates principally in the Building Research Division of the NBS Institute for Applied Technology. The publications are divided into three general groups: Building Systems and Processes: Health, Safety, and Comfort: and .Sturctures and Materials. Listed below are other publications in the category of-Structures and Materials • Interrelations Between Cement and Concrete Properties: Part 1, Materials and Techniques, Water Requirements and Trace Elements.

“…Therefore, the ultimate strain was assumed to be 0.003, similar to concrete behavior. The stress-strain curves for a single wythe as given in [16,17,18] indicate that these curves are similar to concrete, which justifies this assumption. Table 2 shows a comparison of the ultimate shear load by both experiments and finite element method.…”
