Conclusions and remarks In this work, the effectiveness of CRM on the cyclic behavior of brick masonry walls was investigated through shear-compression tests. A cantilever static scheme with reduced clear height has been considered to simulate a masonry pier restrained by the presence of a spandrel. Three specimens were tested: one panel was kept unreinforced as a reference, and the other two panels were reinforced through the application of CRM on one and two sides, b
