System-Level Seismic Damage Assessment Methodology for Reinforced Masonry Shear Wall Buildings
Abstract
Damage state (DS) assessment of reinforced masonry shear wall (RMSW) building systems is key for developing simulation tools for pre- and post-earthquake risk-assessment frameworks. However, the majority of available RMSW damage models are generated based on DSs that are identified from component testing and/or modeling. Recent system-level studies showed that individual wall (component-level) responses might vary significantly from those …
