The results of tests of plain and confined masonry walls with h/l ratio equal to 1•5, made at 1 : 5 scale, have been used to develop a rational method for modelling the seismic behaviour of confined masonry walls. A trilinear model of lateral resistance-displacement envelope curve has been proposed,
A simplified method is proposed to estimate the seismic response of coupled shear walls for design purposes. The method consists of first obtaining the dynamic characteristics of the structure approximately. The vibrating cantilever modes are taken as the approximate mode shapes of the structure. Th
