Implementation of Experimentally Developed Methodology for Seismic Strengthening and Repair of Historic Monuments
2014
The problem of earthquake protection of historic structures and monuments is radically different from that of other structures, due to the priority given to the preservation of the aesthetic, architectonic and historic value, instead of keeping the structure operational. In their effort to protect these structures with the least intervention and the greatest care to preserve authenticity, experts are challenged by the fast development and improved performance of new materials and techniques. However, the implementation of a particular strengthening methodology depends on the extent it has been investigated. Proving the effectiveness of a selected consolidation system can be successfully overcome by design assisted by testing. This Chapter presents the implementation of an original, experimentally verified strengthening methodology in the reconstruction of three very important cultural-historic monuments.
