Experimental data: Experimental response of unreinforced brick masonry walls to moderate-velocity point-load and line-load impacts

This repository contains the experimental data from a series of pendulum tests conducted to investigate the impulsive response of unreinforced brick masonry walls to moderate-velocity impacts. The tests involved four double-wythe clay brick masonry wall strips subjected to both point-load and line-load impacts. Measurements included axial load monitoring, high-speed cameras with 3D Digital Image Correlation (HS-DIC) for strain rates and crack evolution, and 3D LiDAR scans for post-test damage documentation. The data provides a comprehensive analysis of the structural response, failure mechanisms, and energy absorption capacity of the walls under impact conditions. The findings contribute to the understanding of masonry wall behavior under extreme loads and support the development of more resilient structures.
