Experimental Testing of Masonry Subjected to Concentrated Load in Direction of Bed Joints

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

One of the options for rehabilitating existing masonry buildings is a post-tensioning of masonry. The deformation properties of the masonry in the direction parallel to bed joints are essential for the design of a suitable value of the applied force. However, these values are usually not available or are defined only roughly. The aim of this study was to determine, as accurately as possible, the deformation characteristics of the masonry in the direction parallel to the bed joints. Experimental measuring of masonry samples was carried out in laboratory facilities designed specifically for testing the triaxial state of stress of the masonry. The obtained deformations were used to determine the modulus of elasticity of the masonry in the direction of bed joints. Within these experimental tests, laboratory measuring of mechanical masonry properties was carried out, and deformation characteristics were defined on the basis of calculations. The strengths of masonry units and mortar were tested in the laboratory and, according to the tests results, the modulus of elasticity in the direction perpendicular to bed joints was determined. The modulus of elasticity in the direction parallel to bed joints was verified through a simple numerical model. The calculated deformations were compared with the measured values. On the basis of the determination of the deformation characteristics of masonry in the direction of bed joints, the ratios of the modulus of elasticity in the direction perpendicular and parallel to bed joints were concluded.
