Compressive Strength of Deteriorated Historic Masonry Based on Measurements
Result description
Historic structures are made of various types of masonry with significantly different material properties and different degrees of degradation. As a rule the information on mechanical properties of masonry components has to be obtained by testing. Estimation of masonry strength from measurements with respect to relevant uncertainties may be a key issue of the reliability assessment. The probabilistic model of masonry strength is developed considering uncertainties in basic variables and testing procedures. It appears that the characteristics of masonry strength can be well estimated using fundamental statistical methods. The attached case study indicates that the design value of masonry strength obtained by the probabilistic approach may be about double of the value obtained deterministically.
