ABSTRACT
Assessment of historical buildings is now a matter fundamental importance in civil engineering and researchers have been long working to find the best investigation strategies trying limit their invasiveness as much possible. Among other techniques, modal characterization (or dynamic identification) has gaining popularity due its non-destructiveness for ability capture behavior real structure. Combined with more traditional non-destructive-tests (NDTs) or semi-destructive-tests (SDTs), complete view state health structure can be obtained. The present work illustrates experimental activities carried out on an church Noto (Italy) aim determine parameters main masonry structure, important focus façade. NDTs SDTs were used identify material properties, which then implemented detailed Finite Element (FE) model. Finally, numerical results compared ones order ensure good simulation structural behavior.
