Objectives
As a result of this session, you should be able to:
• Confining Elements :
• Vertical ties : (Tie-columns or Practical columns)
• Horizontal ties : (Tie-beams)

What is Confined Masonry (CM) Construction
• CM construction consists of masonry walls and horizontal and vertical RC
confining members built on all four sides of a masonry wall panel.
• Confining Elements :
• Vertical ties : (Tie-columns or Practical columns)
• Horizontal ties : (Tie-beams)

Structural Components of a Confined Masonry (CM) Building
• Confining Elements : Provide restraint to masonry walls and protect them from
complete disintegration even in major EQs.
• Masonry walls : Transmit the gravity load from the slab(s) above down to the
foundation. The walls act as bracing panels, which resist horizontal EQ. forces.
Must be confined by concrete ties
• Floor and Roof Slabs : acts as diaphragms, transmit gravity and lateral loads to
the walls
• Plinth Band : Transmits the load from the walls down to the foundation.
• Confined masonry network established in 2008 under WHE with two objectives
• To improve design and construction of CM where is currently in use
• To introduce CM in areas where it can reduce seismic risks

Confined Masonry in Nepal - Context
• Construction of reinforced concrete frame and masonry wall is trending in cities
and towns
• Heavy damage observed in those construction in the last earthquake even in low
PGA and spectral acceleration

Seismic Performance of CM
Confined masonry construction has been exposed to several
destructive earthquakes:
A six-storey confined
masonry building
remained undamaged in
the August 2007 Pisco,
Peru earthquake
(Magnitude 8.0) while
many other masonry
buildings experienced
severe damage or
collapse

Out-of-Plane Wall Damage
• An example of out-of-plane
damage observed in a three-storey
building
• The damage concentrated at the
upper floor levels
• The building had concrete floors
and timber truss roof
• The same building suffered severe
in-plane damage
