Mechanical properties of tuff and calcarenite stone masonry panels under compression

A significant number of historic and monumental buildings located in Mediterranean areas, and in particular in South-central Italy, are characterized by soft stone masonry, i.e. tuff or calcarenite. Many are exposed to seismic risk, so that a reference data base in terms of mechanical properties is...
