Abstract
Experimental results are compared with numerical Finite Elements models. Composite multi-leaf masonry is modeled as an equivalent continuum obtained through a full 3D homogenization procedure. The mechanical properties of component materials have been obtained in lab by tests and then used to model the masonry at the micro-scale in order to derive the mechanical properties to be adopted at macro-scale. A parametric natural frequencies analysis is performed in order to calibrate the model by the comparison whit the experimental measures.
