Sažetak
Reinforced concrete frame buildings with masonry infill walls are being widely used in seismic prone regions in Southern Europe. For seismic design and evaluation of existing buildings, the contribution of infill walls is usually neglected although it can be and usually is beneficial. Its contribution is of special importance for seismic strengthening of RC frame buildings, where it can be of special importance. Strengthening methods are not sufficiently investigated, especially experimentally, and the investigation of these is necessary. Within the scope of our research, we have planned to investigate possible strengthening methods, of strong and weak frames, by application of the masonry infill. Reinforced concrete frame was designed according to the EC8 and for masonry infill we used hollow and solid clay masonry units. One storey- one bay specimens, built in a scale 1:2.5, were tested under constant vertical and cyclic in-plane lateral loads. In the full paper, we will present only one part of the experiments that were performed at the Laboratory for experimental mechanics at the Faculty of Civil Engineering in Osijek, Croatia.
