The database includes 36 walls representing various masonry typologies as defined by the Italian code, with different leaf configurations (one-, two-, and three-leaf walls). It comprises 12 real walls built in structural engineering laboratories and 24 virtual walls generated using two stone masonry typology generators from the literature. The geometry of the micro- structure is characterized by the geometric masonry quality index (GMQI), which refers to the well-known masonry quality index (MQI), but considers only its geometric parameters. Quantitative criteria are proposed to evaluate the stone shape and the horizontality of the bed joints from 3D microstructures, which were previ- ously evaluated qualitatively. Analysis of the database reveals correlations between unit geometry, construction characteristics, and GMQI classification in current technical codes. The microstructure data, including stones and walls (3D model meshes) along with computed geometric parameters, are publicly available (https://doi. org/10.5281/zenodo.15044436)The authors are thankful to the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF) for funding this work through grant agreement No. 200021_219862 (Behavior of multi-leaf stone masonry walls under in-plane shear-compression loading). The authors also acknowledge the support of the Open Research Data Program of the ETH Board for funding the development of the web-based platform for this microstructure database.
