Dataset from dynamic shake-table testing of five full-scale single leaf and cavity URM walls subjected to out-of-plane two-way bending

Abstract

This paper provides information related to the sensor measurements obtained from five different unreinforced masonry (URM) walls subjected to incremental dynamic shake-table tests at EUCENTRE, Pavia, Italy. This information has been made available to assist in the development and calibration of analytical and numerical models intended to simulate the out-of-plane (OOP) two-way bending response of URM walls. For further interpretation of the sensor recordings, and for a detailed discussion on the observed seismic performance of the specimens, the reader is referred to the article entitled “Experimental Response of URM Single Leaf and Cavity Walls in Out-Of-Plane Two-Way Bending Generated by Seismic Excitation” [1]. Videos documenting the failure of each specimen are also available on YouTube [2].
