Lecture

In-plane behaviour: URM walls

Description

This lecture covers the seismic behavior of unreinforced masonry buildings, focusing on the failure mechanisms, in-plane and out-of-plane failure modes, and the strength capacity according to EC8 and the Swiss code (SIA 266). It also discusses the effective stiffness, shear resistance, and drift capacity of URM walls, providing insights into empirical models and modern brick masonry walls.
