Summary
The paper discusses an use of anisotropy parameters for
estimation of basic mechanical properties of masonry. The proposed
approach uses a modified tensor scale measurement method. This method
has been designed for use in medical sciences but it is currently used
in a much more wide area of application. The method can be utilised
for two-dimensional problems. This paper discusses its use for
estimating initial mechanical parameters (for obtaining the values
and orientation of the orthotropic homogenised material properties).
