Abstract. The structural analysis of monumental constructions requires considering safety and conservation objectives, including the possible presence of artistic assets. In order to face these issues, this paper presents the results of a diagnostic analysis carried out on a 14th-century fortress: the Rocca Albornoziana of Spoleto in Umbria. Within this context, particular attention was de-voted to the choice of the most reliable modelling strategy for the application of the displacement approach in the seismic Performance-Based Assessment (PBA) procedure, as a function of different possible seismic behaviors. Seismic vulnerability was evaluated using a pushover method, and the results obtained with the nonlinear numerical model have been com- pared with the simplified schemes of the limit analysis. The capacity of the fortress to withstand lateral loads was evaluated with the expected demands resulting from the seismic action.

  • Seismic and Restoration Assessment of Monumental Masonry Structures
    Article Seismic and Restoration Assessment of Monumental Masonry Structures Panagiotis G. Asteris 1,*, Maria G. Douvika 1, Maria Apostolopoulou 2 and Antonia Moropoulou 2 1 Computational Mechanics Laboratory, School of Pedagogical and Technological Education, Heraklion, 14121 Athens, Greece; [email protected] 2 Laboratory of Materials Science and Engineering, School of Chemical Engineering, National Technical University of Athens, 15780 Athens, Greece; [email protected] (M.A.); [email protected] (A.M.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +30-210-2896922 Received: 23 June 2017; Accepted: 20 July 2017; Published: 2 August 2017 Abstract: Masonry structures are complex systems that require detailed knowledge and information regarding their response under seismic excitations. Appropriate modelling of a masonry structure is a prerequisite for a reliable earthquake-resistant design and/or assessment. However, modelling a real structure with a robust quantitative (mathematical) representation is a very difficult, complex and computationally-demanding task. The paper herein presents a new stochastic computational framework for earthquake-resistant design of masonry structural systems. The proposed framework is based on the probabilistic behavior of crucial parameters, such as material strength and seismic characteristics, and utilizes fragility analysis based on different failure criteria for the masonry material. The application of the proposed methodology is illustrated in the case of a historical and monumental masonry structure, namely the assessment of the seismic vulnerability of the Kaisariani Monastery, a byzantine church that was built in Athens, Greece, at the end of the 11th to the beginning of the 12th century. Useful conclusions are drawn regarding the effectiveness of the intervention techniques used for the reduction of the vulnerability of the case-study structure, by means of comparison of the results obtained.

READ THIS HERITAGE CHECKLIST BEFORE YOU BEGIN CEMETERY WORK Cemeteries protected by statutory heritage listings sometimes have special requirements or controls for work. This checklist will help you to identify who may need to "sign-off" on your proposed works. 1) Is the item (or place) on the State Heritage Register? Check on the Heritage Office website at: www.heritage.nsw.gov.au 2) Is the item more than 50 years old? (eg a displaced 1926 headstone). 3) Is the item/place on a Local or Regional heritage list? Find out from the local Council. If the answer is “yes” to any of these questions then you will need advice on how to proceed. The local Council officers and the National Trust can give initial advice. (Also see Part 3, Section 3.2 of these Guidelines.) In all cases after complying with any special requirements, you should then go back to the controlling authority (Church, Council, property owner etc.) and confirm that you have permission to proceed.

  • The Hammer-Beam Roof: Tradition, Innovation and the Carpenter’S Art in Late Medieval England
    The Hammer-Beam Roof: Tradition, Innovation and the Carpenter’s Art in Late Medieval England Robert Beech A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Art History, Film and Visual Studies College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham September 2014 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT This thesis is about late medieval carpenters, their techniques and their art, and about the structure that became the fusion of their technical virtuosity and artistic creativity: the hammer-beam roof. The structural nature and origin of the hammer-beam roof is discussed, and it is argued that, although invented in the late thirteenth century, during the fourteenth century the hammer-beam roof became a developmental dead-end. In the early fifteenth century the hammer-beam roof suddenly blossomed into hundreds of structures of great technical proficiency and aesthetic acumen. The thesis assesses the role of the hammer-beam roof of Westminster Hall as the catalyst to such renewed enthusiasm. This structure is analysed and discussed in detail.

Bennett Jr. i ABSTRACT Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) is a well-accepted diagnostic technique being used to evaluate modern structures. This method involves monitoring the vibration response of a structure to detect changes in its structural state. The primary intention of this thesis is to address two practical and technical difficulties encountered in deploying SHM on historic masonry monuments: (i) the selection of suitable low dimensional vibration response features that are highly sensitive to the presence and extent of damage, while having low sensitivity to extraneous noise and (ii) the selection of optimal sensor locations for efficient system identification applied to Gothic Cathedrals. Both of the features of this thesis achieve reduction in the size of the raw data to be analyzed leading to reduced computational as well as monetary effort.

To my dear grandfather Angiolo, who always wondered what was the aim of all that study. ON THE ROLE OF UNCERTAINTIES IN THE SESIMC RISK ASSESSMENT OF HISTORIC MASONRY TOWERS “we have not succeeded in answering all of our problems. The answers we have found only serve to raise a whole set of new questions. In some ways we feel we are as confused as ever but we believe we are confused on a higher level and about more important things” Posted outside the mathematics reading room, Tromsø University (Norway) ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I could not have accomplished this research without the encouragement, guidance and support of Prof. Gianni Bartoli, Prof. Klaus Thiele, Prof. Michele Betti and Eng.
