PREVENTING IRREGULARITY EFFECTS OF INFILLS THROUGH MODIFYING ARCHITECTURAL DRAWINGS

Nowadays structural engineers usually consider masonry infill walls as non-structural elements during analysis and design process of buildings [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7] and only calculate their weight. Consequently, analysis and design of the structures are based on the bare frames without the effects of infills [5, 6, 7, 8]. On the other hand, architects do not consider seismic behavior of PREVENTING IRREGULARITY EFFECTS OF INFILLS THROUGH MODIFYING ARCHITECTURAL DRAWINGS
