A two-steps approach for the FE limit analysis of FRP reinforced curved masonry structures is presented in this paper. In step I, discussed extensively in the present Part I, a simplified kinematic procedure is proposed at a cell level to obtain macroscopic masonry behavior in the case of unreinforced masonry curved structures. In step II, discussed in the companying paper (Part II) strips are applied at a structural level on the already homogeneous material.

Abstract
A two-steps approach for the FE limit analysis of FRP reinforced curved masonry structures is presented in this paper. In step I, discussed extensively in the present Part I, a simplified kinematic procedure is proposed at a cell level to obtain macroscopic masonry behavior in the case of unreinforced masonry curved structures. In step II, discussed in the companying paper (Part II) strips are applied at a structural level on the already homogeneous material.File in questo prodotto:
