To apply this type of construction also in earthquake proven areas, the characterisation of strength and deformation properties under cyclic horizontal loads is essential. For this, a series of full-scale experimental investigations on the behaviour of walls made of thermally insulating clay unit masonry under combined loadings (N-M-V) were carried out in the Laboratory for Structural Engineering at the University of Applied Sciences Regensburg (OTH), Germany. The aim of the static-cyclic tests was to characterise the load-deformation behaviour and the failure mechanism under earthquake loadings. In conventional buildings, stiffening walls are loaded by vertical axial forces and horizontal in-plane loadings. The interaction with the concrete floor slabs leads to restraining effects in real buildings, which create counteracting bending moments. Accordingly, in the test, the loads were applied by a combined loading of bending moment and axial force. Digital image correlation documented deformations to identify failure mechanism. Results indicate that current design approaches according to DIN EN 1996-1-1 are on the safe side regarding the load-bearing capacity of the tested walls contain load-bearing capacity reserves. Based on the failure patterns from digital image correlation, it can be recognised that a strict separation of the individual failure types does not appear to make sense, as the ultimate failure of the test specimens was caused by a combination of several failure types.}, language = {en} } @incollection{MeissnerSchermerAmbergeretal., author = {Meißner, Jonathan and Schermer, Detleff and Amberger, Franziska and Hofmann, Philipp}, title = {Experimentelle und numerische Untersuchungen am Außenwand-Decken-Knoten}, series = {Mauerwerk-Kalender 2025}, volume = {50}, booktitle = {Mauerwerk-Kalender 2025}, editor = {Schermer, Detleff and Brehm, Eric}, publisher = {Ernst \& Sohn Verlag}, address = {Berlin}, isbn = {978-3-433-03445-3}, doi = {10.1002/9783433612019.ch17}, pages = {367 -- 414}, language = {de} } @incollection{Schermer, author = {Schermer, Detleff}, title = {Bemessung von Mauerwerk}, series = {Konstruktiver Ingenieurbau und Hochbau: Technik, Organisation, Wirtschaftlichkeit}, booktitle = {Konstruktiver Ingenieurbau und Hochbau: Technik, Organisation, Wirtschaftlichkeit}, editor = {Zilch, Konrad}, edition = {3.
