3Muri Project: Seismic assessment strategies for masonry structures
This text discusses case studies focusing on the seismic assessment of existing masonry structures, particularly emphasizing the estimation of the magnitude of masonry walls and the significance of diaphragms in seismic analyses. It presents a procedure to determine the appropriate type of analysis—either a global analysis or single-wall analyses—based on the building’s characteristics. Additionally, it highlights the functionality of the 3muri project software, which facilitates single-wall analysis and enables a mixed approach to building design and verification.
