Aseismic retrofitting of unreinforced masonry walls using FRP Mohamed A. ElGawady*, Pierino Lestuzzi, Marc Badoux Swiss Federal Institute of Technology at Lausanne EPFL, Ecole Polytechnique Federal de Lausanne (EPFL-ENACIS-IMAC), Lausanne 1015, Switzerlan Received 8 September 2004; accepted 20 June 2005 Available online 15 September 2005 Abstract Many of existing unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings are seismically vulnerable and require retrofitting. This paper investigates in-plane seismic behaviour of URM walls before and after retrofitting using fiber-reinforced polymers (FRP). Dynamic in-plane tests were carried out on five half-scale specimens with two different effective moment/shear ratios namely 0.7 and 1.4. The specimens were retrofitted on a single side using different types and structures of FRPs.

. The test specimens were subjected to a series of synthetic earthquake motions on a uni-axial earthquake simulator. The retrofitting technique improved the lateral strength and stiffness of the URM walls. Moreover, the fundamental frequency and the initial stiffness of each specimen remained approximately constant before and after retrofitting. During the test, the slender specimens failed in flexural. For specimens failed in flexural, the measured FRP axial strains showed that the strain distributions along the specimens cross-sections are approximately linear even at failure. Hence, the flexural strengths of the specimens were calculated using linear elastic approach.

The measured lateral resistances of slender specimens are approximately 130% of the calculated flexural strength. This difference attributed to the difference in the nominal ultimate strains of FRPs and the real values at failure. The measured axial strains in FRPs during this test were approximately 50% of its nominal values. In addition, the shear strengths of the squat specimens were calculated using two different models. The calculated shear strengths approximately range from 99 to 177% of the measured lateral resistances.

1. Introduction Existing unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings constitute a significant portion of existing buildings around the world. Recent earthquakes have repeatedly shown the vulnerability of URM buildings. Moreover, based on modern design codes most of the existing URM buildings need to be retrofitted. For example, in Switzerland, a recent research [1] carried out on a target area in Basel shows that from 45 to 80% of the existing URM buildings, based on construction details, will experience heavy damage or destruction during a moderate earthquake event. This brought to light the urgent need to improve and develop better methods of retrofitting for existing seismically inadequate. The main structural elements that resist earthquakes in these buildings are the old URM walls URM buildings.

Several conventional techniques are available to improve seismic performance of existing URM walls. Surface treatments (ferrocement, shotcrete, etc.), grout injections, external reinforcement, and center core are examples of such conventional techniques. Several researchers (e.g. [2]) have discussed the disadvantages of these techniques: available space reduction, architecture impact, adding heavy mass, corrosion potential, etc. Modern composite materials offer promising retrofitting possibilities for masonry buildings and present several well-known advantages over existing conventional techniques. A recent literature review for using of composites for retrofitting of URM walls have been presented in [3]. This paper presents a pioneer dynamic in-plane tests carried out on half-scale single leaf unreinforced masonry walls retrofitted with composites (URM-WRC). The objective of this study was to compare the seismic behavior of URM walls before and after retrofitting with composites. Another objective was to examine the ability of existing simple analytical models to predict the lateral strength of URM-WRC.

2. Experimental program 2.1. Test specimens The test specimens had two aspect ratios (Fig. 1): slender walls and squat walls; also, two mortar types were used: weak (M2.5) and strong (M9). In addition, different types of FRP (Table 1) and retrofitting configuration (Figs. 2 and 3) were used to retrofit the specimens. Anchorage failure of the FRP was prevented by clamping the FRP ends to specimens footing and cap beam using steel plates and screw bolts (since anchorage problem is out of the scope of this research). Both the cap beam and footing pad were pre-cast reinforced concrete. The test walls were tested twice: first, the URM specimens were tested, as reference specimens, till a predefined degree of damage; secondly, these reference specimens were retrofitted using composites and retested.

The focus of this paper is on the comparisons between the retrofitted and URM specimens. More details about the behavior of the URM specimens are presented in [4]. The specimens were retrofitted on a single side only. This way of retrofitting was successfully used in different research programs for retrofitting of URM walls using composite material (e.g. [5]). Each specimen is designated by a name that reflects their characteristics; Tables 2 and 3 explain the specimens names and give a complete list of the tested specimens. For instance, L1 WRAP-G-X means a slender specimen (L) which was constructed using mortar type (1) and was retrofitted with fabric (WRAP) of glass (G) fiber in a diagonal (X) configuration. Also, Figs. 2 and 3 show summary of the tests that were carried out on the specimens.

It should be noted that specimen L1-LAMI-C-I where a virgin URM specimen was upgraded with two vertical plates of CFRP was designed to study the shear resistance of slender URM walls rather to investigate the effect of using vertical plates as retrofitting of existing URM walls. Since, in this specimen and in order to force a shear failure, the flexural strength of the specimen was increased with minimal increment in its shear strength. As such, this specimen herein after is considered as a reference specimen. More discussion about this specimen is published in [6]. Finally, after testing of L1-LAMI-C-I and S1-LAMIC- X the CFRP plates were taken off using hammer and chisel. These specimens were retrofitted, one more time, using glass fiber and retested again as L1-WRAP-G-X and S1WRAP-G-F, respectively.

2.2. Test set-up The walls are tested on the uni-axial earthquake simulator of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (ETHZ). A test specimen is fixed on a shaking table measuring 2 m by 1 m. It has a maximum displacement of G100 mm and is driven by a 100 kN servo-hydraulic actuator (Fig. 4). The specimen is connected at its top to a 12-ton substitute mass placed on bearing wheels with a low coefficient of friction in the order of 0.5%. This 12ton mass represents approximately the mass of approximately 55 m2 of a floor due to 200 mm thick reinforced concrete slab, flooring, and live load. At its top, the specimen is guided with a low friction set-up to ensure that out-of-plane displacements are limited. More details about the test set-up are available in [4].

2.3. Loading system A test specimen was constructed on a pre-cast reinforced concrete footing. After allowing the specimen to cure (from 3 to 7 days), the pre-cast reinforced concrete cap beam was fixed to the top of the specimen using strong mortar (M20). Superimposed gravity load of approximately 30 kN was simulated using two external post-tensioning bars. This was in addition to 12 kN of self-weight from steel elements at wall top (due to the test set-up), reinforced concrete cap beam, and masonry panel weight. This normal force corresponded to a stress of 0.35 MPa. During testing of specimens L1-REFE, L1-WRAP-G-F and L1-WRAP G-X and due to increase of the wall height as result of opening of flexural cracks the post tensioning force increased many times; in the next specimens two railcar springs were used with the post-tensioning bars.

. These springs prevent to a certain extend the increment in the post-tensioning force. 2.4. Dynamic excitations The displacement inputs were based on synthetic acceleration time-histories compatiblewith Eurocode 8 [7] for rock soil Type A and with a peak ground acceleration of 1.6 m/s2 (Fig. 5). The specimens were subjected to acceleration histories of increasing intensity until failure occurred. The tests started by subjected the specimens to an earthquake with acceleration of 10% of the reference earthquake acceleration followed by an increment in the acceleration of usually 10% of the reference earthquake acceleration. For space limitations in this paper, the detailed test runs are not presented and interested reader is referred to [4].

3. Experimental results In this section, the experimental results of the test specimens are discussed in terms of lateral strength, drift, maximum strain in composites, and specimen asymmetry. Detailed results regarding URM specimens (i.e. specimens without composites) are available in [4]. It should be noted that effects of mortar on specimens behavior were examined during testing the reference specimens; the effects were very limited.

3.1. Lateral strength and mode of failure All the composite materials increased the lateral strength by a factor ranging from 1.3 to 2.9. Different failure modes happened during the test; Fig. 6 shows the test specimens at the test end. For slender specimens, the full-face retrofitted specimens (L1-WRAP-G-F and L2-GRID-G-F) developed and under a constant normal force of 57 kN, the retrofitting increased the lateral strength by a factor of 2.6 for fabric and 2.9 for grid. A superposition of the hysteresis loops of reference slender specimens (L1-REFE and L2-REFE) and the corresponding retrofitted specimens (L1-WRAP-G-F and L2-GRID-G-F) is presented in Fig. 8. For L1-WRAP-G-F and at the test end, the normal force tripled (due to increments of wall height as a result of opening of flexural cracks and due to the absence of the railcar springs); this increment in the normal force had insignificant effect on the specimen lateral strength.

Nevertheless, the lateral strength of the reference specimen (L1-REFE) approximately tripled when the normal force tripled.As a consequence, the enhancement in the lateral strength in case of high normal force reduced to 1.9 times the original lateral strength. For squat specimens, the lateral strengths of the full-face strengthened specimens (S1-WRAP-G-F and S2-WRAP-GF) were higher than the capacity of the shaking table hydraulic jack. At the tests end, there were no significant signs of failure; in addition, the retrofitting increased the lateral resistance of the specimens by a factor of 2.6. A superposition of the hysteresis loops of reference squat specimens (S1-REFE and S2-REFE) and the corresponding retrofitted specimens (S1-WRAPG-F and S2-WRAP-A-F) is presented in Fig. 9.

Specimens (L1 WRAP-G-X and S1-LAMI-C-X) that retrofitted with diagonal shape (X) were less successful. The behaviors of both specimens were affected by the previous tests, which was carried out on the specimens before retrofitting: before retrofitting, L1-WRAP-G-X was tested as L1 LAMI-C-I while S1-LAMI-C-X was tested as S1- REFE. These testes developed several cracks in both specimens. So, the retrofitting could be considered as retrofitting of URM wall that have been severely damaged during a recent real earthquake event. For L1WRAP-G-X and at failure, the FRP failed at the specimen mid-height due to shear and flexural cracks, which had developed first a rockingmode withmasonry crushing at toes and fiber rupture at heals (Fig. 7); see the video in Appendix A in the online version of this paper.

. For the reference specimens a rocking mode of failure was observed. However, in case of retrofitted specimens the failure happened at level corresponding to the first brick course and this was not always the case for the reference specimens [4]. For both retrofitted specimens through mortar joints. For S1-LAMI-C-X and during the test, one plate failed due to anchorage failure at foundation level since no steel plates (which were used in the other specimens to prevent anchorage failure) were used in this specimen. Both retrofitting configurations enhanced the lateral resistance by a factor of 1.5 for L1-WRAP-G-X and 1.3 for S1-LAMI-C-X. A superposition of the hysteresis loops of the reference specimens (L1-REFE and S1-REFE) and the corresponding retrofitted specimens (L1-WRAP-GX and S1-LAMI-C-X) is presented in Fig. 10. It should be noted that the cracks, which were exist in the specimens before the diagonal retrofitting influenced the results.

. Hence, it is not recommended to use the diagonal configuration as the only retrofitting scheme in the case of real URM wall, which suffers sever damage after a real earthquake. Recently [13] a similar conclusion has been experimentally explored in static cyclic tests on URM walls retrofitted using diagonal strips of carbon fiber. Finally, as mentioned, the goal of testing specimen L1-LAMI-C-I was not to examine the effect of retrofitting; since, in such retrofitting configuration shear cracks were expected to occur. However, it was interested to compare the hysteresis of this specimen (L1 LAMI-C-I) and the corresponding reference specimen. Fig. 11 shows such comparison; as expected this retrofitting system changed the wall mode of failure (from rocking to shear) and increased the specimen lateral strength by a factor of 1.75. Fig. 12 shows step-cracks passing through bed and head joints during the test.
