In-Plane Seismic Behavior of Adobe Walls Reinforced with Palm Fibers
This study investigates the effects of palm fibers on the seismic behavior of adobe walls. Towards this, six wall panels, with dimensions of 1000 × 900 × 200 mm3 were constructed with different fiber contents. Seismic loading was simulated through incrementally increasing cyclic loading reversals combined with a constant vertical stress of 0.3 MPa. The results are described in terms of failure mechanism, load-displacement hysteretic curves, and other prominent structural factors. It was found that adding palm fibers can increase the peak load and displacement ductility by up to 37 and 39%, respectively.
