Peculiar Features of the Deformation of Horizontal Masonry Mortar Joints Under Short-Term Forceful Compression
Designers’ attention is drawn to the necessary constructive calculations not only for the strength of multi-storey, multi-layered, and multi-loaded walls, but also for deformations. The article shows peculiar features of deformation-strength properties of mortars in horizontal masonry joints under forceful compression, compared with those in standard mortar samples in standard tests. It is necessary to jointly consider the conditions of equilibrium and deformations, since the work conditions in the masonry of stone and mortar of different types are polar opposite. The stone is vertically compressed by the load and transversely stretched by the mortar that is usually more subjected to deformation, as a result of which its strength in the masonry is significantly lower than the standard compressive strength. The mortar, whose transverse deformations are constrained by less deformable stones, on the contrary, is unevenly compressed both in the vertical and transverse directions, due to which its strength, unlike deformations, increases significantly.
