Determining the dynamic behaviour of historic masonry public buildings; Isparta registered stone building example

Turkey that is important in terms of geographical location has hosted lands where many states lived in the past. For this reason, a structure reflecting the building style of multiple nations was built in the region. Today, some of these structures still preserve their original form, but some of them have been damaged or destroyed as a result of natural disasters such as earthquakes. In order for these structures to be transferred to future generations, it is necessary to analyze their structural behavior and take the necessary measures. In this thesis study, the dynamic behavior of the Registered Stone Building in Isparta province was examined. For this purpose, the structure was modeled via the SAP2000 V23 finite element program in accordance with the survey project. During the modeling, the actual material properties of the building were used. The physical and mechanical properties of this building material were determined by experimental methods. In the study, scaled earthquake records were used by taking into account the region where the structure is located and the DD-2 level in the Turkish Building Earthquake Regulation. In order to determine the earthquake behavior of the historical structure was carried out with using the earthquake records time-history dynamic analysis of the structure. As a result of the analysis, the period of the structure, base shear forces, displacement and stress values were determined. The values obtained for each earthquake were examined comparatively.
