Masonry walls on continuous beams
Test on half scale models of masonry walls built on point supported continuous beams showed that structure behaves like composite diaphragm girder, with foundation beam acting as tension tie; reactions on interior supports are considerably smaller than those of ordinary beams and external moments are positive throughout length of wall; main cause of failure is crushing of masonry above supports; vertical stanchions at supports increase failure load but do not change mode of failure that occurs after separation between stanchions and masonry through vertical cracks.
