In this paper, the mechanical meaning, the experimental evaluation and the proper use of
the mechanical parameters, which the most diffused simplified models for the prediction for
the Diagonal Cracking failure mode in masonry piers are based on, are analysed. Moreover,
a procedure to obtain a “mean” evaluation of the cohesion and the friction coefficient of
mortar joints of masonry through the diagonal compression test is proposed. In order to
assess the reliability of the procedure, a set of non-linear numerical simulations have been …
