Simulation of brick masonry wall behaviour under cyclic lateral loading using finite element method

This report presents the results of lateral strength and behaviours of masonry wall by using finite element method. The study focused on comparison of lateral forces that caused the initial crack and ultimate crack between laboratory experiments done by previous researchers and the results from fini...
