Structurally and environmentally favorable masonry units for infilled frames
Engineering Structures(2018)
Abstract
•Challenge the idea of using structural types of masonry units as frame infill.•Various mixtures of self-compacting concrete (SCC) are developed and tested.•Key mechanical properties of masonry wallets made of designed SCC units are obtained.•Tests confirmed low stiffness and strength combined with robustness and compactness.•By using non-structural infill an engineer takes more active role in design.
