Experimental shear behavior of stone masonry joints

The mechanical characterization of the shear strength properties takes a major role on the evaluation of the lateral strength of masonry shear walls by means of simplified methods or when numerical analysis based on micromodelling approach is to be followed. Thus, the present paper presents an overv...
