Force Reduction Factor R for Shear Dominated Low-Rise Brick Masonry Structures by N. Ahmad, Q. Ali, M. Javed

“…In-plane quasi-static cyclic tests were conducted on twelve full scale brick masonry walls, to understand behavior of shear-dominated walls under in-plane lateral loads. The tests’ data were analyzed to obtain the lateral shear strength, elastic and inelastic displacement capacities and hysteretic response of walls to facilitate numerical modelling of masonry structures. …”
