Effect of flanges on the in-plane behavior of the masonry walls
https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8218-5832
Abstract In unreinforced masonry buildings, load bearing walls are not of only rectangular shape in the plan, but the cross walls connected to them make the walls of either I shape, T shape, C shape, etc. The presence of the cross walls can significantly change the behavior of the masonry walls in terms of strength and the failure modes of the walls. In this paper, a parametric study has been performed to investigate the effect of different parameters, namely pre-compressions, material properties, aspect ratios, and boundary conditions on the in-plane behavior of the masonry walls. The masonry walls have been modeled using the simplified micro-modeling approach in the standard finite element software Abaqus without any user-defined subroutine. It has been found that the strength and damage pattern of the flanged walls are different from the rectangular walls, which needs to be considered in the analysis of masonry walls using a numerical approach or while conducting experiments.
Highlights The effect of flanges on the in-plane behavior of the masonry walls using the FEM. Effect of various aspect ratios and pre-compressions on the behavior of the URM walls. Effect of various material properties and boundary conditions on the behavior of the URM walls. The crucial difference between the behavior of the rectangular and the flanged walls.
