Failure of unreinforced masonry following the 2011 Christchurch earthquake demonstrated that many masonry strengthening solutions were inadequate for the peak ground accelerations that were experienced, and also that many of the failures were associa

In the experimental assessment of the in-plane behaviour of unreinforced masonry (URM) walls containing openings, accurate measurement of the deformations occurring in the pier and spandrel substructures is important. Eight full-scale perforated URM

Investigations of damage sustained following the 2010–2011 Canterbury earthquake sequence highlighted premature failure of anchorages in previously strengthened masonry. These failures suggest that a lack of understanding surrounding anchorage desi

A formulation is presented for simplified evaluation of the roof acceleration response for the purpose of assessing non-structural components in unreinforced masonry buildings with flexible diaphragms excluding torsional effects. The method is based

The suitability of ‘design’ height amplification factors (HAF) for the purpose of seismic assessment of existing non-structural unreinforced masonry (URM) components with known strength was evaluated through a numerical study. Four building typol

The results of an investigation of the probability of earthquake damage to nonstructural unreinforced masonry (URM) components are presented. The components include parapets, chimneys, and out-of-plane loaded facades typical of low-rise pre-1940 cons

In the general framework of seismic hazard analysis for quantifying site amplification, knowledge of the near surface shear wave velocity profile is crucial. The non-destructive and affordable ambient vibration array technique has been shown to be a

The strength and deformability of reinforced concrete (RC) structures strengthened with externally bonded fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites can be enhanced with the addition of anchorage devices. The inclusion of anchorage can also result in

The use of Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (FRP) materials as Externally Bonded Reinforcement (EBR) to strengthen and/or repair existing Reinforced Concrete (RC) structures is widely documented, and various methods exist to increase the bond strength and/or
