Seismic resistant RC structures

Reinforced concrete (RC) structures with masonry infill walls constitute a significant portion the building stock in many countries due to their simplicity and outstanding characteristics in terms of energy efficiency, fire resistance and sound isolation.

However, recent earthquakes have demonstrated the high vulnerability to damage of traditional masonry infills as they interact strongly with the structural system during seismic actions.

REGUPOL INODIS (Innovative decoupled Infill System) makes masonry infill walls seismically resistant. The system fulfills seismic codes such as Eurocode 8, ACI 318, IBC and contributes a significant part to save human lives.
