Analysis of the Reinforced Masonry on Displacement Response

Article Preview

Abstract:

It is very important to develop reinforced block masonry structure system with a good anti-seismic performance and convenient construction. This paper mainly researched the displacement response of the reinforced masonry structure under earthquake. The maximum storey drift and displacement of the structure are calculated in Y direction by numerical analysis method.
