This research is aimed at studying the effectiveness of reinforcing brick walls using ECC, steel mesh, steel tapes, and zinc sheets to increase their seismic resistance. As a result of experimental and numerical analyses, it was established that these methods significantly increase the strength, deformation properties, and energy absorption of walls.
