Confined Masonry (CM) Construction in ChileWidely used for construction of low-rise single family dwellings (up to two-storey high), and medium-rise apartment buildings (three- to four-storey high). CM construction practice started in the 1930s, after the 1928 Talca earthquake (M 8.0). Good performance reported after the 1939 Chillanearthquake (M 7.8) and this paved the path for continued use of CM in Chile. The area affected by the Maule earthquake was exposed to several major earthquakes in the past, including the 1985 Llolleo earthquake (M 7.8).

Confined Masonry Construction in Chile (Cont’d)
Good performance track record in past earthquakes based on single family (one- to two-storey) buildings.
Three- and four-storey confined masonry buildings exposed to severe ground shaking for the first time in the February 2010 earthquake (construction of confined masonry apartment buildings in the earthquake-affected area started in 1990s).
Modern masonry codes first issued in 1990s – prior to that, a 1940 document “Ordenanza General de Urbanismo y Construcción” had been followed

Seismic Performance of Confined Seismic Performance of Confined Masonry Construction Masonry Construction
By and large, confined masonry buildings performed well in the earthquake.
Most one- and two-storey single-family dwellings did not experience any damage, except for a few buildings which suffered moderate damage.
Large majority of three- and four-storey buildings remained undamaged, however a few buildings suffered severe damage, and two three-storey buildings collapsed.
