This volume is a collection of peer-reviewed full text scientific papers presented at the International Conference on Mechanics of Masonry Structures Strengthened with Composite Materials (MuRiCo 7) held entirely online on November 24-26, 2021. The purpose of this collection is to provide a review of the latest achievements in the modeling, testing, design, control, and health monitoring of masonry structures strengthened with composite materials.
The increased use of advanced materials in high-efficiency structures – electronic devices, medical equipment, aircraft and vehicles – requires an improved reliability, increased resistance to breakdown, and better failure and life-span forecasting for a wide variety of loading conditions. The development of materials having advanced structural properties is becoming a key factor in industrial and technological progress.
