Strengthening Technique

The results of an experimental study aimed at seismic strengthening of brick masonry walls by the use of repointing and reinforcing bed joints are presented. Within the testing campaign eight walls were tested by cyclic shear. Two of the walls were used as control walls, whereas the other six walls were strengthened. Two kinds of mortar were used for repointing and steel and GFRP materials were used for reinforcement. In case of one wall, reinforcement was laid into a flexible polymer in order to distribute the stresses in the steel bar to a larger area. The tests indicate that repointing can be a very successful strengthening technique. Best results were obtained in case of repointing by mortar with low elastic modulus and steel reinforcement.

This paper presents the behaviour of moisture movement of calcium silicate brick masonry walls exposed to sodium sulphate environment. The walls were exposed to three sodium sulphate conditions with sulphate concentrations of5%, 10% and 15%. For comparison, some walls were also exposed to dry and wet condition which acts as a control conditions. All specimens were prepared and cured under polythene sheet for 14 days in a controlled environmental room and maintained at relative humidity and temperature of 80 ± 5% and 25 ± 2°C, respectively. After the curing period, the specimens were exposed to sodium sulphate as well as drying and water exposures, during which moisture movement was measured and monitored for a period of up to 7 months. As a result, the moisture expansion was observed and recorded for all masonry wall specimens after exposed to the sulphate condition.
