Abstract: The restoration of historical masonry structures, especially, consolidation of main structural members, is becoming a crucial important issue. Therefore, the structures need restoration to survive their life as a result of aging and increasing load demand. Many historical structures have been restored in order to resist these effects [1]. Masonry constructions are typically complex structures and there is lack of knowledge and information concerning the behavior of their structural systems, particularly in what regards their seismic response. These structures are more massive than today’s structures and usually carry their actions primarily in compression.
