Partially grouted reinforced masonry shear walls (PG-RMSWs) have emerged as an efficient and economic seismic force-resisting system (SFRS) in North America. Unlike fully grouted reinforced masonry shear walls (FG-RMSWs), where all masonry cells are grouted, in the PG-RMSWs system, grout is only placed in cells with vertical reinforcement and horizontally reinforced bond beams. Despite the economic benefits of PG-RMSWs systems in low-rise buildings, the use of such a system in mid- and high-rise structures is still questionable since minimal research has been conducted to study the behavior of flexural-dominated PG-RMSWs. The literature lacks comprehensive studies investigating different limitations adopted for flexural-dominated PG-RMSWs in the North American masonry design standards (i.e., TMS 402/602-16 and CSA S304-14). These limitations have a major influence on the ductility of the walls, the energy dissipation capacity, and the damping characteristics. Most of the conducted studies targeted FG-RMSWs and were then adopted for PG-RMSWs with some modifications and conservatism that do not always reflect the actual case. Accordingly, this study investigates the effect of various design parameters on the quasi-static lateral cyclic response of flexural-dominated PG-RMSWs. Eight walls with different aspect ratios were designed to represent the CSA S304-14 and TMS 402/602-16 different seismic provisions for moderately ductile reinforced masonry shear walls (RMSWs) and intermediate RMSWs, respectively. A 2D numerical simplified micro model was developed using the Extreme Loading for Structures (ELS) software to model the studied PG-RMSWs. The results showed that PG-RMSWs that satisfy seismic provisions of the TMS 402/602-16 intermediate RMSWs don’t possess enough ductility as required. On the other hand, the CSA S304-14 code provisions for moderately ductile reinforced masonry shear walls can be extended to cover partially grouted flexural-dominated RMSWs.
