Session 2.2 GNGTS 2023 Fig. 1. 3D and plan views of: a) the building aggregate configuration; b) the interaction between the overturning façade and the transverse walls; c) the interaction between the overturning façade and the coplanar walls of the adjacent SUs; d) the interaction between the overturning façade and the transverse walls and the coplanar walls of the adjacent SUs. Under the hypotheses of rigid block, no-tensile strength and limited compressive strength, the nonlinear kinematic analysis has been carried out by applying the Principle of Virtual Work, where: - the work done by the external forces is given by the contribution of the vertical and horizontal forces acting on the overturning wall; - the work done by the internal forces is given by the contribution of the friction forces acting at the connections between the overturning façade and the adjacent SUs, due to both the self-weight
