The presence of the brick masonry infills can greatly <br>improve the seismic performance of RC frame structures by increasing their lateral strength and stiffness, <br>respectively. However, when the RC frame structure is only partially infilled with the brick masonry wall, the <br>responses of the RC frame structure becomes completely different. In this study, a series experimental was <br>conducted to evaluate the seismic performance of RC frame structures with partially infilled by the brick <br>masonry. Three of 1/4 reduce-scaled of RC frame specimens, i.e. a bare RC frame, a fully brick infilled RC <br>frame and a partially brick infilled RC frame has been experientially tested under lateral static reversed cyclic <br>loading. Experimentally results have shown that existence of the partially brick masonry infilled in the RC <br>frame structure play a significant role in damaging of the RC column.</p> ER -
