Seismic Assessment of Earthen Structures
Earth is an ancient construction material that is attracting numerous scientific investigations due to the sustainable characteristics of this material and the significant heritage of existing earth constructions. Several studies have recently been conducted to investigate the seismic performance of earth buildings. This chapter presents the state of the art related to the seismic performance of earth structures. Since the seismic performance of a structure depends both on the dynamic and static characteristics of the material and the structure, the chapter starts with a summary of the static characteristics, followed by the results on the dynamic characteristics. Then the existing methods for the earthquake performance evaluation are presented. Finally, the techniques of seismic strengthening are cited and discussed. This chapter is a useful repertoire for further studies on the seismic design of earthen structures.
