2 NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF URM INFILL WALLS in RC FRAMES: CRITICAL MODELING ASPECTS KHALID M. MOSALAM UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, BERKELEY 15WCEE, Lisbon, Portugal, September 24-28, 2012 Special Session 24.1 Seismic Retrofit of Masonry Structures. Monday, 24 September 2012

3 Motivation 3 URM Infill Walls in RC Buildings Benefits  Significant effects on functionality  Contribute to lateral force resisting capacity & damping up to a certain hazard level  Increase the overall stiffness – may have benefits for certain cases Detrimental Effects  Sudden brittle failure: High potential to form a soft story during shaking  Interaction with the frame: Shear failure of columns  In plane/out of plane interaction: Reduced capacity in both directions  In plane/out of plane interaction: Debris from out of plane failure, life safety concerns  Torsional effects due to asymmetric wall arrangement in plan Quantification of detrimental effects requires proper modeling 15WCEE, Lisbon, Portugal, September 24-28, 2012 Special Session 24.1 Seismic Retrofit of Masonry Structures.
