ce/papers, Volume 8, Issue 3-4, Page 308-315, September 2025.Abstract Unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings constitute an important portion of the European building stock, where metal injection anchors are widely utilized for seismic retrofitting. While crack propagation in URM walls is extensively studied, the interaction between these cracks and structural anchors remains an underexplored area of research. This
