Review of experimental cyclic tests on unreinforced and strengthened masonry spandrels and numerical modelling of their cyclic behaviour
A reliable numerical modelling for the cyclic behaviour of unreinforced and strengthened masonry spandrels is herein presented. The proposed numerical model is adapted from Tomazevic-Lutman’s model for masonry piers in shear and it has been validated upon an experimental campaign conducted at Department of Engineering and Architecture of University of Trieste. The tests were conducted on Hshaped full-scale specimens imposing vertical displacements of increasing amplitude on one leg. Four unreinforced masonry specimens arranged with different masonry material (bricks and stones) and lintel supports (wooden lintel, masonry arch) were considered. Each specimen was then reinforced with a different strengthening technique (tensioned bars, steel profiles, CFRP laminates) and re-tested. Analytical relationships were proposed, based on those available in some Codes of Practice, to estimate the maximum shear resistance of URM and RM spandrels. These relationships provide resistance values in good agreement with the experimental results and can be correctly employed to define the cyclic model of the spandrel to be used in the numerical simulation. The cyclic shear-displacement curves obtained through the numerical model are in good agreement with those of the experimental tests and very good assessment of the dissipated energy was obtained.
