Validation of masonry systems for in-plane lateral loading using truss reinforc...
Description
The paper presents and describes the main issues related to two building systems for modern masonry structures using truss reinforcement, currently under development at University of Minho, one based on lightweight concrete blocks and another based on reinforced concrete block masonry. Details of the experimental and numerical work carried out are addressed, together with conclusions on the performance of the system for in-plane lateral loading.
