The Cross

The finite element analysis method was adopted to simulate the masonry wall strengthened with steel strips and was verified by comparing with test results. The influence rules of two factors including the cross sectional area of steel strips and vertical compression were investigated. The results show that, as for unreinforced masonry wall, the relationship of the shear capacity of unreinforced masonry wall and the vertical compressive strain is linear under lateral load; the speed of stiffness degeneration is accelerated after the peak point of the curves, but decrease with the increasing of lateral displacement. As for masonry wall strengthened with steel strips, the shear capacity increases significantly, and shows nonlinear relationship with the cross section area of the steel strips and vertical compression; ductility is improved. Finally, a computational formula of shear capacity based on a lot of parametric analysis is proposed to calculate the sectional dimension of steel strips, and it provides theoretical foundation for establishing thorough design method of masonry wall strengthened with steel strips.

The purpose of this paper was to investigate the mechanical behavior and failure mode of recycled concrete brick masonry wall under cycling in-plane load. These models of masonry walls were constructed in the laboratory and experimented under in-plane cycling load. The masonry wall was made of recycled concrete bricks joined by mortar, with gypsum lining on both faces. A simulation based on the experiment was carried out using the finite element software ANSYS. In the proposed FE model, the recycling concrete bricks and joints were modeled separately, allowing for nonlinear deformation characteristics of the two materials. The results of the experiment and the finite element analysis were analyzed and compared. When the stress distributions were taken into consideration in the experiments and solutions of ANSYS, it was observed that the stress concentration occurred on two diagonals of the masonry wall. The destruction process and characteristics of the masonry wall were obtained by the experiments. The results of finite element method matched experimental results very well. The FE software ANSYS can be used in the analysis of recycling concrete brick masonry walls under in-plane cycling load and strength capacity.

Analysis Methods

Based on finite-element analysis and some other theoretical analysis methods, the modal analysis of one pin masonry wall reinforced with the concrete wall have been researched with comparison, the results of two methods are well matched. The results showed that the modal analysis of brick walls reinforced with concrete wall could be analyzed with ANSYS software while the appropriate modle was chosen. Reference can be provided for the study of dynamic characteristics of the structure.
