Summary

The influence of the type of masonry construction of traditional buildings on the dynamic behavior of old buildings with masonry walls is the subject of this work. Comparison of the eigenmodes, periods and the participation factors for each mode, permits us to find the relation between the type of masonry and the dynamic, response spectrum analysis. This is an important step to estimate the behavior of the structure due to earthquake loading. The strengthening methods which were examined consist of three basic types of masonry construction and are: reinforced concrete slabs, reinforced concrete tie-beams and reinforced concrete tie-columns. The influence of the plan geometry and the existence of internal shear wall is also examined.
