Experimental assessment of shear response of brick masonry retrofitted with TRM
(International Centre for Numerical Methods in Engineering (CIMNE), 2021)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyAs one of the main historical construction materials, masonry is abundant among the architectural heritage of earthquake-prone areas of the Mediterranean countries. Earthquake mitigation approaches are now focusing on ... -
Seismic vulnerability assessment of representative building typologies from Barcelona's Eixample district
(International Centre for Numerical Methods in Engineering (CIMNE), 2021)
Conference report
Restricted access - confidentiality agreementUnreinforced masonry buildings prevail in many old historical centres and urban areas worldwide. These structures may present inadequate seismic performance because they were often designed without considering any seismic ... -
Laboratory and in-situ characterisation of masonry materials in a large historical industrial building in Barcelona
(International Centre for Numerical Methods in Engineering (CIMNE), 2021)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis paper presents an experimental campaign carried out in an historical industrial building of Barcelona from the 19th century, considering in-situ and laboratory minor destructive testing (MDT) techniques. The results ... -
Experimental study of in-plane shear behaviour of brick masonry retrofitted with basalt and steel reinforced mortars
(Universidad de Cantabria, 2020)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis paper focuses on the application of composite materials to improve the in-plane shear strength of existing brick masonry walls. The experimental program involved the construction of walls composed of handmade solid ... -
The dynamic assessment of structural condition by measurement error-minimizing observability method
(CRC Press, 2020)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe structural identification using dynamic parameters (such as the natural vibration frequencies and mode shapes of the structure) is an important issue especially in slender structures such as long-span bridges or high-rise ... -
