In order to investigate the effect of middle tie beams on confined masonry walls, we conducted experiments of test specimens in which the variables were brick strength and the presence or absence of middle tie beam. In this paper, we report the effects of each parameter from the results obtained in the experiment. First, the test specimen composition and the experimental plan will be explained. The experimental results are shown below. Finally, from these results, a comparative examination is carried out.
