Damage Statistics and Integrity Assessment of Brick Masonry Structures in Historic Buildings
Deterioration faced by brick masonry structure of historical buildings is more and more concerned. In this paper, two methods, statistical classification and quantitative mapping, have been carried out to analyze the damage apperance of the southeast and northwest facades based on a historical building project in downtown Shanghai. Then damage distribution characteristic and integrity assessment have been further analyzed. Statistics show that the damage area ratios on southeast and northwest facade are 8.71% and 8.06%, respectively. Specifically, dampness, saltpetering and peeling are three main damage features to these two facades. The damage distribution curves of the both in vertical direction have the similar appearance, Both show that the sum of damage reaches the maximum value at the level of 2 m above ground surface, and then gradually decreases with the elevation increase. In addition, the total damage length also increases near height of 9 m.
