Skopje earthquake damage

Kunze, W.E. / Fintel, M. / Amrhein, J.E.

Earthquake of July 26 1963, in Skopje, Yugoslavia, emphasized that multistory unreinforced masonry wall-bearing structures without ties between walls and floors are unsuitable in seismic zones; buildings with reinforced concrete frames without shear walls experienced nonstructural damage, and those with shear walls or concrete cores, when properly built, showed little or no structural damage.
