TY - JOUR A1 - Schermer, Detleff A1 - Meyer, Udo Joachim A1 - Lutman, Marjana A1 - Triller, Petra T1 - Shear tests on full scale storey-height specimens constructed with thermally insulating clay unit masonry with thin-layer mortar JF - Mauerwerk N2 - The paper presents results of a series of 6 in-plane shear tests on storey-height clay unit masonry panels [1] with thin-layer mortar, carried out in addition to previous test campaigns [2], [3], and [4]. The walls were constructed with unfilled thermally insulating clay units with a thermal conductivity of lambda = 0.09 W/(m . K). The current design rules for clay unit masonry according to DIN EN 1996-1-1/NA [5] are conservative compared to the presented test results for thermally insulating clay unit masonry.
