Influence of the Geometry of Units and of the Filling of Vertical Joints in the Compressive and Tensile Strength of Masonry

Attention is given to the mechanical properties of concrete block masonry, with respect to its compressive and tensile strength. These properties are important parameters in the in-plane lateral behaviour of masonry walls, determining their resistance and ductility. Such properties play also a centr...
