This session gives a technical background on the modeling and analysis of masonry structures in DIANA.

A case study for nonlinear modelling of a masonry infilled reinforced concrete frame which was tested experimentally will be presented. This presentation includes:

Description of the specimen
Calibration and validation of the material parameters
Modelling of the infilled frame
Pushover analysis
Comparison of the numerical and experimental results

A classical case-study of a masonry wall with opening will be presented to demonstrate DIANA capabilities for modeling and predicting failure mechanisms of masonry structures.
