Structural Repointing of Masonry Structures
Key Engineering Materials, 2019Existing masonry structures are often in need of strengthening due to the limited masonry tensile strength and consequent occurrence of cracks, which can lead to collapse of the structure. To control the cracking phenomena and increase the load associated with a certain collapse mechanism, structural repointing by means of reinforcing bars inserted in ...

Historical masonry buildings often show diffused crack patterns due to different causes in relation to original function, construction technique and loading history. Non-destructive testing methods, and especially the Acoustic Emission (AE) technique, applied as in situ monitoring systems allow reliable evaluation of the state of conservation of these ...

Investigation of the Structural Response of Masonry Structures
2019Methods used for the structural evaluation of masonry structures and monuments are presented in this article. Limit analysis is initially presented as a tool for the study of the collapse mechanism and limit load of masonry structures. Unilateral contact-friction laws are introduced between the stones, to describe damage due to opening-sliding. Related

Masonry buildings collect a wide variety of constructions, which are characterized by very different types of masonry and structural systems, moving through historical periods and geographical areas. Within this context, in the chapter, after a brief introduction on the seismic behaviour of masonry structures (§5.2) and the critical issues that affect ...

Statics and Reliability of Masonry Structures
1991In this chapter, a mechanical model for masonry structures is introduced. Specifically, it is assumed that masonry can be idealized as a particular kind of “no-tension” material. The expected agreement of the model with the real behaviour of masonry buildings is discussed.

Corrosion in masonry structures
2015The mechanism of corrosion of metals when embedded in masonry structures (mainly iron and steel) is different from that of steel in concrete. The latter involves reinforcing steel and this is usually protected from corrosion for many years in good-quality, high-alkalinity concrete.
