Experimental Assessment of Postearthquake Reusability and Repairability of Controlled Rocking Masonry Walls with Replaceable Energy Dissipation Devices

Abstract Recent research on controlled rocking masonry walls has focused on self-centering mechanisms with accessible energy dissipation devices and enhanced toe protection strategies to improve seismic performance. Unlike post-tensioned rocking systems, where unbonded post-tensi...
