Seismic Retrofitting: Learning from Vernacular Architecture
Neighborhood groups have tailored for hundreds of years to not easy atmosphere, due to unexpected average dangers. Vernacular structure usually finds very clever responses attuned to the surroundings. consequently, the query that emerged used to be: how did neighborhood populations arrange their dwellings to stand widespread earthquakes?
Im vorliegenden Band wird das Verhalten von thermisch entspanntem und thermisch vorgespanntem Kalk-Natron-Silikatglas bei schwingender Beanspruchung anhand von Dauerschwingprüfungen im Doppelring- und 3-Punkt-Biegeversuch unter verschiedenen Randbedingungen untersucht. Zudem wird überprüft, ob Kalk- Natron-Silikatglas bei periodischer Beanspruchung eine Ermüdungsschwelle aufweist und Rissheilungseffekte zwischen den einzelnen Lastzyklen auftreten.
