Experimental and numerical issues in the modelling of the mechanical behaviour of masonry

In the last forty years an enormous growth in the development of numerical tools for structural analysis has been achieved. The use of such tools demands advanced testing in order to obtain the experimental characterisation of the mechanical behaviour of materials. This paper provides a review of di...
