Structural performance of traditional and engineered building types (L)
Examples of small and larger scale testing; facilities and technical equipment; demands on specimens and scaling requirements; application of equivalent forces and ground motion in pseudo-static and dynamic testing; load and displacement relationship for full-scale testing of structural elements and building configurations; prediction of capacity curves and material properties and parameters; design principles and structural solutions for traditional (masonry) and engineered (steel) type structures, basic rules for non-engineered buildings (with locally available materials).
Elaboration of structural models for performance assessment of existing buildings (P)
Search for typical building representatives of the target regions (home countries of the participants); experimental investigation of design and retrofitting strategies using small-scale structural models; testing of elements and interpretation of failure mechanisms, derivation of structural layout and simplified models of representative building types, damage prognosis and comparison with observed response; fragility functions; introduction in data processing for simulation tools, a.o.3MURI
Small Scale testing (E)
For the target masonry building of the project, a representative small scale model has to be developed following the scaling requirements as well the demands and limitations on specimens and size of testing platform. A real model for testing has to prepared using a set of small stone units and wooden elements. The model will be shaken using existing facilities. [Note: The realization and final testing depend on the pandemic situation.] |
