    My dissertation topic is "comparative study of confined masonry and infill masonry RC structure." Design of infill masonry RC structure has been done in SAP2000. Right now my work has been stopped at one Query, "how to design confined masonry structure in SAP2000." I would be grateful if anyone could share resources to help me with my research.

    Dear Indrajit,

    This is a subject of study from a long time ago (it is better to look for this subject in languages in Spanish because this is the case of construction buildings in South America or other regions where clay is abundant, and the labor is cheap). I am sending you a link with an interesting Report presented in Mexico (Spanish language) where you can find tips to perform your structural analysis: Pérez_2010_Guide for analysis of Masonry Structures
