Brief description:

The structural behavior of the Pavilion is certainly complicated, given that there is a coexistent metal structure with a masonry wall structure. In certain places it was necessary to find out the tension state of service of the masonry walls, so that it carried out a a group of flat jack tests. Also, mortars, bricks and masonry were characterized from the corresponding tests.
