ArchLab: a MATLAB tool for the Thrust Line Analysis of masonry arches
According to Heyman’s safe theorem of the limit analysis of masonry structures, the safety of masonry arches can be verified by finding at least one line of thrust entirely laying within the masonry and in equilibrium with external loads. If such a solution does exist, two extreme configurations of...
