Finite element modeling of masonry wall with mortar 1pc : 4 lime : 10 sand under lateral force

Abstract

This paper gives a detailed presentation of three-dimensional Finite Element Model that has been constructed for Masonry Wall under lateral force by using Abaqus software. This research aimed to investigate the behavior of Masonry Walls under lateral force and developed load-displacement curve. From the result that The numerical model using the Abaqus Software can represent the load-displacement curve of Masonry Walls due to lateral forces, Numerical Results with the Abaqus Software obtained that the magnitude of the load on condition of Plastic is 82.13 KN and experimental results obtained of 81 KN. There is a difference of 1.4%, Based on Abaqus Software with Numerical results obtained a compressive strength of masonry wall fm = 1.8 MPa with a modulus of elasticity = 150 MPa, Calculation of the natural frequency of structures with Abaqus Software is obtained as the difference of 2.13-2.92% with the test results Hakas (2017)
