| This paper evaluates the performance of masonry buildings during the 20 and
27 December 2007 Bala (Ankara) earthquakes. Bala is a township located
50 km southeast from Ankara city in Turkey. The majority of the buildings in
the affected region are built in masonry. Most of masonry buildings were
formed with random or coursed stone and mud brick walls without any
reinforcement. Many of these buildings were damaged or had collapsed. The cracking
and failure patterns of the buildings are examined and interpreted according
to current provisions for earthquake resistance of masonry structures. The
damages are due to several reasons such as poor construction quality and
poor workmanship of the buildings. In addition to these reasons, the two
earthquakes hit the buildings within seven days, causing progressive damage. |
