Abstract
In China, brick masonry is extensively used in the construction of multi-storey dwellings, as well as in single-storey industrial plants and warehouses. Therefore, studies in this field are numerous. This paper presents only the experimental studies and proposed calculations for unreinforced and reinforced brick masonry under compression.
Résumé
En Chine, la maçonnerie de brique est très largement utilisée dans la construction d'immeubles à plusieurs étages et des usines ou magasins à un seul étage. Les études dans ce domaine sont donc nombreuses. Cet article présente uniquement les études expérimentales et les calculs proposés pour des maçonneries de brique non-renforcées et renforcées sous compression.
