The aim of this research work is to simulate the behavior of dry-masonry numerically. Different modellingstrategies are available for simulation of the masonry. In this research work, macro-modeling strategy has been used, inwhich the masonry was treated as a homogeneous, isotropic continuum. A Dry-stack wall was modelled in ABAQUS/CAEand checked for its compressive strength by applying different stories load. The maximum stresses and displacementsproduced for each story and the effects compared with the single story load.
