Structural Behaviour of Masonry Vaulted Staircases Using Limit Analysis: The Case Study of the Bell Tower of Santa Maria Delle Vigne
2019
Overview
The present study concerns the structural analysis of the masonry vaulted stairs of the Santa Maria delle Vigne bell tower in Genoa (Italy). The vaulted staircase systems are fully analysed in terms of technological and constructive details. The 3D geometric models are defined from laser scanner data. The structural analyses were carried out by using both the equilibrium limit analysis and a static incremental FEM analysis. Despite the efficacy of classic equilibrium methods in analysing arched and vaulted structures is largely proved in literature, this study demonstrates that vaulted staircase systems often collapse because of compressive failure of masonry before losing stability.
