Abstract:
Generally masonry wall (brick) considered to be burden (non-structure) in the a planning.
That assumption is correct, but will change if there is horizontal force (quack). Existence of
lateral force effected wall have interaction with portal and this matter will have effect to
inflexibility of structure, this matter necessitate characteristic masonry wall need to be brought
into play in the a plan. At the moment many building development using underside as place of
business and upper with partition (cladding), this matter make the structure relative stiffer on
the top. Effect of masonry wall which unevenness alterable become structure that having
disrepair mechanism soft-storey. Analysis done to two objects test that is RM-A and RM-B. From
result analysis with equation ACI to two objects test obtained force of compression (axial) equal
to 107,2 kN and 108,4 kN with deflection 1,794 mm and 1,79 mm. analysis with equation Euro
code obtained force of compression equal to 298,76 kN and 302,72 kN with movement 4,99 and
5,165 mm. Verification with RAM Element program for force of compression 270 kN and 330
kN obtained movement equal to 1,22 mm and 7,05 mm. Whereas from experimental study which
there have been obtained force of compression equal to 248,23 kN and 333,83 and kN with
movement 8,91 mm and 11,07 mm.
