Masonry can be described as a composite material made up of different units and diverse types of arrangements, with or without mortar, that is used in many ancient public buildings, as well as with the latest technologies being applied in construction. Research in multiple relevant fields, as well as crossing structural with non-structural needs, is crucial for understanding the qualities of existent buildings and to develop new products and construction technologies. This book addresses and promotes the discussion related to the different topics addressing the use of masonry in the construction sciences and in practice, including theory and research, numerical approaches and technical applications in new works, and repair actions and interventions in the built environment, connecting theory and application across topics from academia to industry.History of engineering and technologybicsscartificial neural networkregional constructive culturesneural networkscracks in shellsinfilled framesseismic assessmentno-fines lightweight concreteunreinforced load-bearing masonryNepal earthquakedynamicsurvey damage assessmentmasonry infills and partitionsold urban centerin situ test campaignrepair costs due to infillsstatic analysisAEMnon-linear analysismechanical propertiesnumerical modellinggranite masonryhigh-rise reinforced concrete structuredamage analysisseismic rehabilitationstructural restorationstrengtheningstone masonrymasonry infill wallsmasonry characterizationhysteresisambient vibration testweak mortarseismic actionsmasonrybilinear approximationload-bearing masonry wallsdatabaseflat-jack testingmasonry shellGreco-Roman constructionseismic retrofittingstone masonry walletslinear and non-linear numerical toolsfoundation settlementRC buildingsobserved performancecapacity curveheritage constructionmasonry buildingshear-sliding testspost-earthquake surveysstrengthening interventionwallHistory of engineering and technologyRodrigues Hugo1332973Šipoš Tanja KalmanScCtBLLScCtBLLBOOK9910367564203321Masonry Buildings4317660UNINA
