A mixed micromechanical homogenisation scheme for the prediction of the 3D orthotropic elastic properties of different masonry bond typologies

Masonry structures composed of two distinct material phases (units and mortar) with potentially vastly different elastic properties are characterised by strong orthotropy. The variety of commonly employed bond typologies for masonry walls, featuring unit groups and mortar joints with different orien...

Sumario:Masonry structures composed of two distinct material phases (units and mortar) with potentially vastly different elastic properties are characterised by strong orthotropy. The variety of commonly employed bond typologies for masonry walls, featuring unit groups and mortar joints with different orientation with respect to the plane of the wall, result in complex stress and strain interactions between the material phases.
