Abstract

This document presents the interpretation of the test results obtained within the whole 2019 experimental campaign on timber-masonry connections, in as-built and strengthened configurations tested under monotonic, cyclic and dynamic loading. In this document, starting from those results, failure mechanisms are analysed, which could occur in each type of tested connections. Furthermore, the main properties of them, such as strength, stiffness and damping are determined.
