In this study, an optical non-destructive measurement method, the Digital Image Correlation, was used to describe the debonding onto the FRP reinforced surface of 36 bricks subjected to Shear Test.
Experimental tests have been performed on full scale clay brick walls subjected to out-of-plane loads.
The paper deals with the formulation of salt-resistant renders, suitable for the protection of brick masonries subjected to rising damp of salt solution.
In particular, bidirectional shaking table tests are performed in order to investigate the seismic performance of hollow brick partitions, subjecting the partition simultaneously to interstorey relative displacements in their own plane and accelerations in the out of plane direction.
Finite element analyses of brick masonry subjected to in-plane concentrated static and dynamic loads are carried out to study crack initiation and propagation during the failure process of unreinforced masonry walls.
As basic ingredients of reflector in reactor, graphite bricks are subjected to high temperature and irradiation and the stress field of graphite structures determines integrity of reflector and makes a great difference to safety of whole structure.
A rudimentary application in a single bay, one-story steel frame infilled with off-the-shelve solid clay bricks was subjected to in-plane quasi-static cyclic loading and to out-of-plane shake table testing.
Students can see how the choice of a word form affects brick type; how subjects and objects are linked to verbs, and so on.
A total of 16 full-scale in-situ tests were carried out to investigate the performances of unreinforced clay brick masonry walls subjected to vented gas explosions.
Three alternative equations to predict the carrying capacity of brick masonry walls subjected to concentric and eccentric vertical loading are presented.
