Abstract

Failure under seismic action generally occurs in the form of out-of-plane collapses of walls before reaching their in-plane strength in historical stone masonry buildings. Consistent finite element (FE) macro modeling has emerged as a need for use in seismic assessments of these walls. This paper presents the numerical model calibration of U-shaped multi-leaf stone masonry wall specimens tested under ambient vibrations and out-of-plane (OOP) load reversals. The uncertain elastic parameters were obtained by manual calibration of the numerical models based on ambient vibration test (AVT) data of the specimens. To obtain nonlinear calibration parameters, static pushover analyses were performed on FE models simulating quasi-static tests. The calibrated numerical models matched well with the experimental results in terms of load–drift response and damage distribution. As a result, the modulus of elasticity and tensile and compressive degrading strength parameters of masonry walls were proposed. A parametric study was conducted to examine the effects of different materials and geometric properties (tensile strength, aspect ratio, slenderness ratio, and geometric scale) on the OOP behavior of stone masonry walls. A quite different strain distribution was obtained in the case of a large aspect ratio, while it was determined that the geometric scale had no effect on the strain distribution. Tensile strength was the dominant parameter affecting the load–drift response of the models. Within the presented work, a practical tool for out-of-plane seismic assessment has been proposed for the structures covered in this paper.
