The research deals with the analysis of the structural behaviour of CFRP (rebars) reinforced masonry panel. The study shows also the comparison between the behavior of plain masonry and masonry reinforced with ordinary mesh steel under shear test. The tests were carried out using the diagonal test; two different types of wall were employed (but with the same mechanical characteristics of materials) with 200 mm and 330 mm of thickness, using the steel mesh reinforcement and carbon FRP rebars on both sides. The sample was made with mortar applied directly to the face, with the reinforcement inside. Finally the research makes a comparison with a similar test carried out by other authors using FRP strips and lamina.

Abstract
The research deals with the analysis of the structural behaviour of CFRP (rebars) reinforced masonry panel. The study shows also the comparison between the behavior of plain masonry and masonry reinforced with ordinary mesh steel under shear test. The tests were carried out using the diagonal test; two different types of wall were employed (but with the same mechanical characteristics of materials) with 200 mm and 330 mm of thickness, using the steel mesh reinforcement and carbon FRP rebars on both sides. The sample was made with mortar applied directly to the face, with the reinforcement inside. Finally the research makes a comparison with a similar test carried out by other authors using FRP strips and lamina.
