Measurement-supported performance assessment of earthquake-damaged concrete and masonry structures

Yves Sylvain Gilles Reuland

As demonstrated by recent events in Italy, New-Zealand, Haiti, and Nepal, earthquakes continue to pose threats to civil infrastructure, including buildings. For a long time seismic ultimate limit states have not been considered in design codes for regions ...

Usefulness of ambient-vibration measurements for seismic assessment of existing structures

Ian Smith, Pierino Lestuzzi, Yves Sylvain Gilles Reuland

A large number of buildings in regions with low to medium seismic hazard have been designed without considering earthquake actions. Retrofitting of all buildings that fail to meet modern code requirements is economically, technically and environmentally un ...

Seismic vulnerability assessment of “Sion cathedral” (Switzerland): an integrated approach to detect and evaluate local collapse mechanisms in heritage buildings

Pierino Lestuzzi, Yves Sylvain Gilles Reuland, Lorenzo Diana

Seismic assessment of existing heritage buildings remains a challenging task. There is a high level of complexity and uncertainty compared with the assessment of standard buildings. Heritage masonry churches are usually prone to partial collapses during ea ...

Reducing the uncertainty on the structural behaviour of existing structures through data interpretation

Ian Smith, Pierino Lestuzzi, Yves Sylvain Gilles Reuland

This paper presents a methodology for reducing the uncertainty related to the structural behaviour of an existing building in view of a vulnerability assessment regarding future earthquake actions. Estimating the lateral load resistance is a step towards e ...

Evaluating seismic retrofitting efficiency through ambient vibration tests and analytical models

Ian Smith, Pierino Lestuzzi, Yves Sylvain Gilles Reuland, Angelo Garofano

Economic and environmental imperatives lead to an ever growing need to extend the service life of the existing building stock without putting the users at risk. In zones prone to moderate seismic hazard, many buildings were built without considering seismi ...

Improving Remaining-Fatigue-Life Evaluation Using Data Interpretation

Ian Smith, Romain Pasquier, Yves Sylvain Gilles Reuland

This paper presents a methodology that improves fatigue-performance evaluations using model-based data interpretation. The accuracy of stress-range values is essential for quantifying fatigue damage. These values are usually predicted using physics-based m ...
