STRUCTURAL INVESTIGATION OF MALATE CATHOLIC CHURCH Ruel B. Ramirez, MSCE, M. ASEP Assistant Professor, College of Architecture University of the Philippines, Diliman I. Introduction ! Background The structure is Baroque-style built in the 16th century It is composed of thick masonry wall and huge buttresses It was damaged by war in 1762 It was hit and damaged by earthquake in 1863 It was damaged during the World War II ! Building Code Requirements To safeguard against major structural failures To safeguard life, not to limit damage or maintain function ! Heritage Structures NSCP does not cover analysis of heritage structures Analysis falls on to the Structural Engineers It is tested by time, thus, it is an actual laboratory testing II. Methodology ! Ocular Inspection To document the existing condition of the structure To assess the physical condition of the structure To assess the potential hazards (disintegrated masonry units) II. Methodology ! As-Built Plans II. Methodology ! Material Testing The distribution of Results 3MPa is 24% 4MPa is 14% 5MPa is 29% 6MPa is 24% 7MPa is 5% 8MPa is 5% II. Methodology Malate Catholic Church M.H.

Conclusion and Recommendations ! The structure is sll safe under the design load considered in the analysis ! The lowest factor of safety is due to tension which implies that failure will be ini+ated by tensile cracks rather than crushing of the adobe blocks ! The wall and bu9resses can+levers from the foo+ng thus, no heavy loads such as mezzanine should concentrate in that region ! Exisng cracks in the wall and bu9resses should be repaired to integrate each masonry unit into the system .
