Pre-stressed masonry is one of the most common and also the most effective method of buildings repair. At Faculty of Civil Engineering laboratory equipment was designed for detailed analysis of post-tensioned masonry, specifically for measuring the deformation of masonry corner mainly around the anchoring plates that are used for transmission of pre-stressing forces into masonry. Measurements were performed for two values of pre-stressing force in both directions. In the paper there are also marginally mentioned numerical models for comparison with measured values.
