Cracks in masonry. A procedures for evaluation

Abstract

Traditionally the masonry structures, are evaluate to start from its original geometry, without to rely on, sometimes, with precious listings, starting to the ideals models. Recently, on the checking, that the nature of these structures not permit a elastic analysis, since as it constitution hyperestatique is high, and that the knowledge of the deformed geometry of these structures is basic, to can establish conjectures about his working, well through of methods to based in plastics theories, elastics (numerical methods), combinations of both o simply for applications of graphics methods. The present paper, on propose in the summarize form show, theses differences in the form to approach the analysis of masonry buildings, to star of removed geometry for the cracks, phenomenon of the obligate apparition in all masonry structure that they are working.
