What is Masonry Structures: Earthquake Failures about?

1. Masonry structures are vulnerable to earthquake damage due to their brittle nature and weak connections between walls and roofs. 2. Major failure modes of masonry buildings include out-of-plane wall failure, in-plane wall failure, diaphragm failure, and failure at wall openings. 3. Non-destructive testing methods like rebound hammer, ultrasonic pulse velocity, and flat jack tests are used to evaluate the strength and integrity of existing masonry structures.
