Abstract
In‐plane shake‐table tests were performed on eight full‐scale unreinforced concrete block walls. Three of the walls were left as plain unreinforced masonry and five were strengthened using glass‐fiber‐reinforced plastic (GFRP) strips in four different configurations. All walls were first subjected to design‐level earthquake records to determine the improvement obtained from the addition of the GFRP. The walls were then subjected to extreme‐level earthquake records to examine the ultimate failure modes and the effects of the various GFRP configurations on the response of the walls. It was observed that all strengthened specimens performed well during the design‐level shaking, and three of the four GFRP configurations also performed well during the extreme‐level shaking. The tests showed that the use of vertical GFRP strips alone is able to improve the in‐plane performance of URM walls. The strips were also able to control the failure modes, and prevent collapse after severe damage, improving significantly the life safety performance of URM walls.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
