Controlled seismic behaviour of masonry-infilled steel frames

Ivan Radić, Damir Markulak, Vladimir Sigmund

Abstract

Whether used as a curtain/partition wall or a bearing part of the structure, masonry infill significantly affects structural behaviour of the primary structure. Two different types of masonry units (‘strong’ and ‘weak’), often used in Croatia as infill of steel frames, are initially considered in the paper. Based on experimental results obtained by testing behaviour of these two types of masonry units, a third type of infill is proposed, which is a specific combination of the initial two types, and enables realisation of controlled behaviour of masonry-infilled steel frames.

Keywords
