Abstract
The study will consist of the seismic reaction of a six-story building with a reinforced concrete structure, including the impact of brick masonry in the seismic event phase. Partition walls are part of the building’s structure used to create separate spaces within the building and to limit the building from the exterior and other objects. Despite their intended functions, partition walls can be involved in transmitting seismic forces due to their stiffness and strength. Since partition walls are rigid, they tend to capture more seismic forces and transmit them to frame-type structures. This can cause damage to the structure. For this reason, it is important to analyse the effects of partition walls on the building’s structure, especially in the context of seismic activity. The structure with masonry will be calculated in engineering software, and conclusions will be drawn about the way of connecting the masonry to the frame.
