Motivation
• Evaluate the performance of numerical models
predicting the seismic behavior of a Reinforced
concrete frame, with infill masonry panels
• Make a parametric study, with the references model
after the experimental test.
• gaining further insight into modelling and seismic design verifications for
infill panels
• Improvement of the structural strength, stiffness and deformation
capacity and consideration of the of openings in infill panels
FRAMA–2015 International benchmark
Blind Test Challenge
Purpose
Participants will have:
• access to the design data and input ground motion and should predict
the expected seismic response
• access to the experimental results and could modify their numerical
modelling in order to improve the agreement between numerical and
experimental results

Final comments
In the assessment of existing buildings, and design of new buildings…
• consideration of the masonry infill walls (based on simple checking rules/procedures
after the structural design) should be enforced
• particular attention should be given to the openings through the reduction of the
infills strength and drift parameters in the hysteretic behaviour
• the infills collapse determined the structural response and conditioned the blind
prediction results for pga>0,7g
Taking into account the results dispersion obtained by all the teams, the
numerical modelling of these type of structures needs further research with
simplified and refined procedures to improve the future results.

  • 32. Final comments In the assessment of existing buildings, and design of new buildings… • consideration of the masonry infill walls (based on simple checking rules/procedures after the structural design) should be enforced • particular attention should be given to the openings through the reduction of the infills strength and drift parameters in the hysteretic behaviour • the infills collapse determined the structural response and conditioned the blind prediction results for pga>0,7g Taking into account the results dispersion obtained by all the teams, the numerical modelling of these type of structures needs further research with simplified and refined procedures to improve the future results.
