Theoretical Characterization of Infill Panels Basing on Compressive and Shear Tests
Abstract eng: This paper discusses the orthotropic behavior of a kind of infill panels: in particular slender clay brick panels are analyzed in order to calibrate the mechanical characteristics required in force-displacement relationship for an infilled RC frame. Two different kinds of clay brick panels (120 mm thick with semi-solid bricks and 80 mm thick with hollow bricks) have been tested in the two orthogonal (in plane) principal directions and in the diagonal direction. Components were tested too: bricks in compression and mortar both in compression and bending. The results of this test sequence were discussed in the past in terms of components-to-panel compressive strength ratio. In this paper test results in terms of orthotropic plane behavior are discussed and some criteria to define the elastic characteristic are pointed out. structural response, masonry panels, infilled RC frames, compressive test, shear test
