A Fe Model for TRM Reinforced Masonry Walls with Interface Effects
Résumé
We report on experimental and numerical investigations of textile reinforced mortar (TRM) strengthening systems, an innovative solution for reinforcing historical masonry structures. The experimental campaign presented in this paper is original and concerns two commercial TRM applications to single-leaf clay masonry panels. The proposed FE modelling is based on a multiscale approach with the possibility of simulating bed joints sliding and TRM-reinforcement debonding. This last phenomenon is frequently reported in the experimental literature and it has been observed also in our experimental tests. The numerical model is applied to study the behaviour of TRM reinforced masonry panels under diagonal compression tests.
