This book reports on a comprehensive analytical, experimental and
numerical study on the flexural response of post-tensioned masonry
walls under in-plane loads. It explores an important mechanism in
this new generation of structural walls, called "Self-centering".
This mechanism can reduce residual drifts and structural damage
during earthquake ground motion, and is particularly favorable for
structures which are designed for immediate occupancy performance
levels. The book reports on the development and verification of a
finite element model of post-tensioned masonry walls. It describes
a detailed parametric study to predict the strength of
post-tensioned masonry walls. New design methodologies and
expressions are developed to predict the flexural strength and
force-displacement response of post-tensioned masonry. Experimental
study is carried out to better understand the behavior of
post-tensioned masonry walls and also to evaluate the accuracy of
the proposed design procedure and expressions. The book also
includes an introduction to current research on unbounded
post-tensioned masonry walls, together with an extensive analysis
of previously published test results.
