N2 - This paper presents the shake table tests of a three-story, two-bay, 2/3-scale, masonry-infilled RC frame. The specimen was representative of the construction practice in California in the 1920s. It had a non-ductile frame design and was infilled with unreinforced masonry panels including a wall with a window opening in one bay and solid wall in the other bay in each story. The structure was subjected to a series of 14 ground motions of increasing intensity before it practically collapsed. The design of the specimen, the testing sequence, and the major findings are discussed here.
