Abstract: | Due to the low tensile strength of masonry perpendicular to the bed joint, masonry wall panels have non-linear material properties. Assuming simple elastic constitutive laws, this article presents two modelling variants, which consider the lack of tensile strength in a simple manner. Both variants are investigated for their advantages and disadvantages. In a second part of the article, the application of the methods will be illustrated through the example of a four-storey building. |
