Manufacturing, assembly, and testing of scaled, historic masonry for one-gravity, pseudo-static, soil-structure experiments

Laefer, Debra F. ; Long, James H. ; Cording, Edward J. ; Erkal, Aykut ; Truong Hong, Linh (Elsevier, 2011-12)

In many model-scale experiments, geometric scaling is upheld but kinematic and/or dynamic similitude is not because of the difficulty in manufacturing and assembling small models. This paper describes scaling, manufacturing, ...
Theoretical solutions for strength-scaled unreinforced masonry for scaled soil-structure experimentation

Laefer, Debra F. ; Erkal, Aykut ; Cording, Edward J. ; Long, James H. ; Truong Hong, Linh (ASTM International, 2010-07)

Reduced-scale masonry testing offers advantages of lower costs and shorter schedules compared to full-scale testing, but achieving results reflective of full-scale behavior requires development and fulfilment of appropriate ...
