Table 8 Comparison of measured shear strength and formula value (MPa).

Specimen	α (%)	\({f_{cu.m}}\) ^a	\({f_{{vg.m}}^{0}}\) ^b	\( f_{vg.m}\) ^c	\(f_{{\text{v}}g.m}^0{/}f_{{\text{v}}g.m}\)

^a \({f_{cu.m}}\) is the average value of measured concrete strength.
^b \(f_{{\text{v}}g.m}^0\) is the average value of measured masonry shear strength.
^c \(f_{{\text{v}}g.m}\) is the value calculated by Formula (9).
