seismic-resistant behavior, brick walls, structures, concrete, frames, push-over analysisAbstract
In construction, brick and concrete are the most widely used materials, occupying an important part of the building budget. Its great versatility in construction, contrasts with the fragility of these elements. This solution is suitable for low-rise buildings, but it is not so clear for medium and high-rise buildings, due to its low ductility and its weight. The proper location of these walls in buildings could improve their resistant and ductile behavior. In this research, the optimal solution is found for the placement of infill walls with bricks in 4- and 8-story frames, considering ductility and resistance.
