DOI: 10.1080/13632469.2024.2401074
Abstract: ABSTRACT This study proposes a simplified theoretical model to predict the in-plane lateral capacity of unreinforced masonry (URM) walls, addressing limitations in current design guidelines based on semi-empirical approaches. Masonry walls are conceptualized as macroscale… read more here.
