Masonry
structures are commonly used in many countries. Load bearing masonry walls are the most important structural element in the masonry structures. In this study, a computer program was
written in
MATLAB for
linear elastic analyses of masonry walls. In
addition, a mesh
program which
meshes the wall as two dimensional model was written in MATLAB. These
models were constituted with macro modelling approach. Three different load cases were applied to two
dimensional masonry model with opening. The
obtained results from the
linear elastic analysis were compared with ANSYS software results.
