On the slopes of Lima, the lack of urban planning initiatives has led to the construction of houses on landfills contained by traditional dry stone retaining walls, known as pircas. These structures are precarious, presenting a high risk of earthquakes. The research focuses on analyzing the influence of the constructive process (configuration) of the pircas on their seismic performance out of the plane, intending to improve current construction practices. For this purpose, experimental studies were carried out at a natural scale and numerical modeling using the Discrete Element Method (DEM). The open-source software YADE was used for the numerical models. A pseudo-static experimental campaign of three wall configurations (3 specimens per configuration) was carried out. The numerical and pseudo-static experimental results showed the same trend. On the other hand, the effect of the configuration of the pircas on their performance was also analyzed through dynamic numerical study. This approach was compared with the pseudo-static approach, and how conservative one approach is compared to the other was obtained. Finally, based on the results, some recommendations were provided for building pircas and improving their performance. It has been proven that the current construction technique can be improved by regularly using through-stones and considering an overlapped transverse section. An increase of up to 50% in lateral resistance was achieved, verifying the through-stones' effectiveness.
