2013 - Grout-Masonry bond strength

by  lexpatrie  Posted    (Edited  )
There doesn't seem to be a masonry specific forum, given the current masonry standard once upon a time was under ACI, I'm posting things here.

The History and Significance of Coring Masonry Walls, Chrysler, Siggard, The Masonry Chronicles, Summer 2013

If you really want, the original appears to be here, at least for now (4/17/2024):
The History and Significance of Coring Masonry Walls, Chrysler, Siggard, 12th Canadian Masonry Symposium, Vancouver, British Columbia, June 2, 2013

Further discussion:
Coring of Concrete Masonry Walls: Is it Necessary? Bennett, Structure Magazine, March 2016

The link in that article doesn't work anymore, but this is probably what it's referring to (calculations included).

Coring of Concrete Masonry walls, is it necessary? The Masonry Chronicles, Winter 2015-2016.

Senior Project: Masonry Core Testing, Alvaro and Anastasio, June 20, 2017
