Field investigation and performance-based seismic design of rocking shallow foundations in cohesive soil
DownloadFall 2019
This research investigated the use of rocking shallow foundations in improving the seismic performance of soil-footing-structure systems. A series of lateral loading tests of large-scale rocking foundation systems in natural cohesive soil were conducted and a performance-based seismic design...

Shear Strength of Partially Grouted (PG) Masonry Shear Walls: Experimental and Analytical Studies
DownloadFall 2023
When subjected to in-plane loads, the shear behaviour of partially grouted (PG) masonry shear walls is complex due to the heterogeneous and anisotropic nature of the masonry materials and the nonlinear interactions among their constituents. For instance, insufficient shear strength will lead to a...
