Experimental study on the seismic behavior of masonry wall-to-floor connections

The global structural performance of masonry buildings, under earthquake loading, is affected by the efficiency of wall-to-floor connections, since they assure the continuity of the energy path and prevent the occurrence of most of the local collapse mechanisms. In fact, out-of-plane behaviour of ma...
