Abstract: In Morocco, in the calculation of reinforced concrete structures, the behavior of the infill walls is not taken into account. The masonry infill walls are considered until now as non-bearing elements, therefore the role of resumption and transmission of vertical loads (permanent and operating) and horizontal loads (seismic) is ensured only by the reinforced concrete structure (frame structures). Several researchers insist on the positive role of the infill walls in the rigidity of reinforced concrete structures under the action of horizontal forces. the experience of past earthquakes around the world has shown that not taking into account the infill effect in the modeling of the structure....
