In a severe earthquake, the walls of brick buildings experience in-plane shear and out-of-plane bending, leading to diagonal crack corner failure, respectively. this study, an experimental investigation was carried out observe above damages on masonry reinforced with geogrid embedded in bed joint mortar walls. It observed that panels showed better strength, lateral ductility, etc. A qualitative...
