Testing of Hollow Clay Tile Masonry Prisms
This paper presents test results of 610-mm wide (24-in.) by 1219-mm high (48-in) by 203- or 330-mm (8- or 13-in.) thick prisms constructed of hollow clay tiles. Three prisms were extracted...
Compressive Strength of Masonry Prisms
Many factors affect the estimation of compressive capacity of a masonry prism. In the study the effects due to grout strength, mortar joints, block geometry and size, moisture content,...
Prisms and Antiprisms
Prisms form a group of mathematical figures, that have found widespread application in many disciplines, but especially in architecture and in building structures. They have two identical...
Development of an Isohyetal Analysis for Oregon Using the Prism Model
PRISM (Precipitation-elevation Regressions on Independent Slopes Model) is an analytical model that uses point data and a digital elevation model (DEM) to generate gridded estimates of...
Geomorphic Analysis for Enhancement and Restoration of the Tijuana Estuary, California
