Numerical modelling of cracks in masonry walls due to thermal movements in an overlying slab

This paper describes a numerical modelling exercise employed to understand the propagation of cracks in masonry walls under a time varying thermal load in an overlying roof slab. A structural–thermal coupled non-linear analysis was used to predict locations, directions and propagation of cracks. A c...
