In this research an effort is made to numerically model masonry infill with openings using a finite element basedprogram ATENA. Masonry infills are provided within reinforced concrete (RC) frame for various purposed that includepartitions, safety, security, aesthetics etc. Parameters like Load, displacement and energy dissipation are investigated andcompared for the experimental and numerical models. It was concluded that up to yield the program could successfullymodel the behavior of masonry infill.
