Study which considered FRP tube confined RAC using recycled clay brick aggregates (RCBA) originating from demolished brick masonry components is rare.

Past research has shown that masonry mesoscale descriptions, where bricks and mortar joints are modelled separately, offer a realistic representation of the mechanical behaviour of masonry components.

Recent accelerated aging tests have shown that bond degradation and FRP delamination are likely to occur in FRP-strengthened masonry components under hygrothermal conditions.

This paper presents numerical modeling of the bond behavior in FRP-strengthened masonry components using interface elements, based on a recent testing program at the University of Minho.

The traditional finite element method is indeed capable of predicting the behavior of large scale masonry component, but the computational time is very high.

The paper summarises the available information about the behaviour of masonry assemblies and components exposed to high temperatures and fire.

Detailed comments are given about the temperature-dependence of the relevant mechanical properties for masonry and its components, that are put into comparison.

This work deals with 2-D micromechanical analysis of two component adobe masonry (i.e. composite system composed of adobe bricks and mortar joints), focusing on the influence of different bond configurations and loading schemes.

Since masonry is composed of two components, i.e. masonry units and mortar, and is highly anisotropic and nonlinear, modelling the physical reality is very demanding.
