What is Assessment of ASCE 41 Height-ToThickness Ratio Limits For URM Walls about?

This study evaluates the height-to-thickness (h/t) ratio limits for unreinforced masonry (URM) walls as outlined in ASCE 41, focusing on their out-of-plane response during seismic events. Using a rigid-body numerical model calibrated with shake table tests, the research aims to determine the minimum h/t ratio that could lead to wall collapse, finding that walls meeting ASCE 41 limits have a low probability of failure. The findings highlight the need for accurate vulnerability assessments to prioritize retro
