Özet

Protection of cultural heritage buildings against strong seismic events is one of the most challenging tasks modern engineers are called to tackle. Masonry structures are complex with regional and historical diversities rendering extremely difficult defining generalized rules. A holistic approach that involves interdisciplinary collaboration and a full package of engineering from monitoring to testing is a necessity.
