The in-plane strengthening of masonry walls plays a key role in the improvement of the global seismic behaviour of masonry buildings. Various strengthening techniques are currently available, such as coatings, confinement or injection and the use of cement-based materials or steel- or fibre-reinforced polymers or mortars. In this work, two innovative strengthening techniques for existing masonry buildings were investigated: the use of glued or nailed timber wall panels connected to the outer and/or inner face of the masonry wall. Their effectiveness in reducing the seismic vulnerability of existing masonry walls was assessed in tests and numerical simulations. The test results demonstrated improvements in strength, rocking displacement capacity and energy dissipation capacity. The numerical analyses, conducted with non-linear models calibrated on experimental results available in the literature, confirmed the advantages of these interventions, comparing the effects of using monolithic or coupled glued or nailed wall panels, provided that particular attention is given to their connection to the existing structure.

用木板对砌体建筑进行面内加固

砌体墙的面内加固在改善砌体建筑的整体抗震性能方面起着关键作用。目前有多种强化技术可用，例如涂层、封闭或注射以及使用水泥基材料或钢或纤维增强聚合物或砂浆。在这项工作中，研究了现有砖石建筑的两种创新加固技术：使用胶合或钉钉木墙板连接到砖石墙的外表面和/或内表面。它们在减少现有砌体墙地震脆弱性方面的有效性在测试和数值模拟中得到了评估。测试结果表明强度、摇摆位移能力和能量耗散能力都有所提高。数值分析，
