Study on the Response of Strengthening Strategies for Masonry-Infilled Open Ground Storey Framed Building
Abstract: The strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) frame buildings with masonry-infill wall and with open ground storey is a very timely and significant topic because of the poor performance against seismic action. The absence of infill walls in the ground storey makes the ground storey less stiff and weaker than the all upper story’s which results in a poor performance against lateral loads. Soft storey mechanism prevails in these cases and …

Influence of Infill Density on Structural Performance of FDM-Processed PET-G Polymer: Experimental Validation through Quadcopter Flight Testing
Abstract: Polyethylene terephthalate glycol-modified (PET-G) is an amorphous thermoplastic copolymer increasingly adopted in structural applications through fused deposition modeling (FDM). However, the correlation between FDM processing parameters, especially infill density, and mechanical performance of PET-G parts remains inadequately characterized under real-life loading conditions. This study investigates how infill density (10% and 30%, grid pattern) influences the structural integrity of FDM-processed PET-G components, validated experimentally through quadcopter airframe fabrication and flight testing. …

Analysis of Partially Infilled Frames
Abstract: The design of building structures is usually carried out without considering the effect of masonry infill. Currently, seismic design codes (Eurocode 8-Part 1, ASCE 41-06) contain provisions for the calculation of stiffness of fully infilled frames mainly by modelling infill as a diagonal strut. However, such provisions are not provided for infilled frames with openings. The main objective of the study was to validate the equations relating the lateral stiffness …
