Summary

This paper discusses the computational modelling of short masonry columns. The main aim is the preparation of the numerical and experimental background for the development of concrete-based strenghtening or reinforcing elements for masonry structures. The input data for the numerical modelling of columns has been obtained by the remodelling of basic experimental tests of the bricks and the mortar samples. Selected results of laboratory tests of masonry elements are given and numerical remodelling is presented. The Willam-Warnke elastic-plastic constitutive model is used for the numerical analysis. Three-dimensional finite element models are used and for most of the work the ANSYS software was used. The commercial finite element code is used because of its general availability. The development of a more suitable numerical model is also briefly presented. The paper presents experimental data and the corresponding inputs for the numerical computations. A comparison of the results of the experimental investigation and of the numerical modelling of masonry columns is also included.
