Study of the Arrangement Effect of Units on the Shear Strength Masonry Walls in Meso-Scale

Masonry is one of the oldest building materials which have been used in most heritage structures and new construction. In this study by using a meso-scale finite element model, the behavior of masonry walls is investigated under monotonic loading by Abaqus software. The most important factor in dete...
