Abstract: | Results of tests conducted for combined and confined masonry walls are reported in this paper. The cyclic testing followed the protocol established by Mexican guidelines for masonry structures (NTCM-2004), which is similar to that used worldwide for the cyclic testing of wall structures. Resisting mechanisms and deformation characteristics of such walls were evaluated. Indicative values of useful parameters for analysis and design were also defined. In addition, it was verified if such a system is earthquake-resistant according to NTCM-2004 guidelines. |
