Abstract
A numerical experimentation is performed for determining limit load multipliers and collapse mechanisms of several masonry walls subject to in-plane actions generated by self-weight and out-of-plane actions that may cause tilting or toppling of masonry assemblage portions. Dry and mortar joints are considered and existing case studies are adopted for calibrating the proposed model and evaluating its effectiveness.
