The research aims to assess the structural and seismic performance of a historical mansion, identifying vulnerabilities related to seismic activity.
Integrated architectural surveying and on-site damage assessment
Laboratory testing of masonry materials
Developed a finite element model and conducted static and spectral analyses according to the Turkish Building Earthquake Code.
Seismic loading produced shear stresses up to 0.51 MPa and exceeded shear strain thresholds in critical areas.
Findings indicate significant vulnerability due to low masonry strength and structural irregularities.
Results support the need for targeted strengthening interventions.
