“…Deutliche Konzentrationen werden auch in Bereichen unterhalb der aufgebrachten Punktlasten [11] und in bestimmten Bereichen schubbeanspruchter Wände beobachtet, insbesondere in der Nähe von Öffnungen [12], [13]. Die Bestimmung der Bereiche konzentrierter Spannungen in Mauerwerkswänden erfordert umfangreiche Berechnungen [14], [15], [16]. Es…”

The paper describes the results of testing six autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) walls on a natural scale. The walls were made of 18 cm wide blocks and thin layer joints. Reinforced and non‐reinforced walls were tested. Basalt grids and typical steel reinforcement (truss type) were used as reinforcements. The load was applied by a reinforced concrete rim beam. In the first part of the tests, the impact of the opening (window) on stress distribution and the load capacity of the wall was analysed. In the second part of the tests, the unequally loaded connection zone of perpendicular walls was analysed. The results were used to draw practical conclusions on rules of additional reinforcement of zones surrounding openings and connection zones of perpendicular walls.

“…difficulties, including the simulation of complete evolutionary histories of damage and the associated field of stress flow, are frequently encountered in infills with complicated geometry, such as infill walls with openings. Obviously, the introduction of openings in the infill walls would lead to discontinuous loading path resulting drastic decrease in the strength and stiffness [15].…”

“…This leads to a high increase in stresses around the angles of the windows. Failure patterns observed in experimental tests [8,25,30,31] indicate that these areas are most likely to fail first and should be carefully designed. (Figure 10), the diagonal strut acts more on the compressed column, when compared to the full infill model, with an increase in the shear force.…”

Partition walls are often made of masonry in Romania. Although they are usually considered non-structural elements in the case of reinforced concrete framed structures, the infill panels contribute significantly to the seismic behaviour of the building. Their impact is difficult to assess, mainly because the interaction between the bounding frame and the infill is an intricate issue. This paper analyses the structural behaviour of a masonry infilled reinforced concrete frame system subjected to in -plane loading. Three numerical models are proposed and their results are compared in terms of stiffness and strength of the structure. The role of the openings in the infill panel on the behaviour is analysed and discussed. The effect of gaps between the frame and the infill on the structural behaviour is also investigated. Comparisons are made with the in-force Romanian and European regulations provisions.
