    Seismic Performance of Damaged Code-Conforming Rc Columns Repaired With Sustainable Structural Mortar
    (Elsevier B.V., 2024) Kolemenoglu, S.; Halici, O.F.; Demir, C.; Aydemir, C.; Aydemir, M.E.; Ilki, A.
    Examining the seismic performance of damaged reinforced concrete (RC) structures after repair applications is vital for an effective post-earthquake disaster management policy. However, the number of experimental studies investigating the seismic behavior of repaired RC members is insufficient, especially for structural members that have endured slight or moderate level damages. In this study, four identical large-scale code-conforming RC columns were tested under combined effects of axial load and reversed cyclic lateral displacements. The reference column was tested until failure, while the remaining three columns were first imposed to lateral displacements until the formation of damages at different levels, then repaired with structural repair mortar that contains recycled raw materials without removing axial load and tested again until failure. The primary objectives of the experimental program are to enhance the knowledge on the post-earthquake performance of damaged RC columns and to investigate the effects of repair applications after slight and moderate damage levels. This paper provides details on the effectiveness of the aforementioned repair technique on the seismic performance of code-complying RC columns damaged at different damage levels. © 2024 Elsevier B.V..

    An Overview on the Structural Monitoring, Assessment and Retrofitting of Historical Structures With a Focus on 13th Century Monuments
    (Springer international Publishing Ag, 2024) Ilki, Alper; Inci, Pinar; Halici, Omer F.; Demir, Cem; Comert, Mustafa; Kuran, Fikret
    Monumental historical structures affirm natural and cultural identity and hence they should be transmitted to future generations. The protection and preservation of these structures against aging and natural hazards, particularly seismic actions, requires a comprehensive approach including diagnosis of the present condition of the structure and enhancement of structural capacity for disaster mitigation, if necessary. It is obvious that due to their historical values, any attempt towards the preservation of the monumental historical structures must be carried out with respect to the principles of integrity and authenticity. In this study, the structural performance assessment procedures, implementation of structural health monitoring systems and seismic strengthening strategies are discussed and described with reference to 13th-century monumental historical structures in Turkiye. The structural engineering aspects of recent activities for the restoration and preservation of the Great Mosque and Hospital of Divrigi (a world heritage listed structure) and Sivas Ulu Cami (Mosque) Minaret are briefly presented. In light of the structural analysis and monitoring results, recommendations for interventions to these monumental structures are outlined.

    Numerical Seismic Performance Investigation of Aac Infill Walls With Flat-Truss Bed-Joint Reinforcement
    (National Technical University of Athens, 2023) İlki, Alper; Halıcı, Ömer Faruk
    Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) is a lightweight, energy-efficient and easy-to-transport material. As a result, AAC walls are becoming increasingly common as an infill solution in earthquake-prone areas such as Turkey, Italy, and Greece. Although infills are considered as secondary components in seismic design, they are extremely vulnerable to damage during earthquakes along both in-plane (IP) and out-of-plane (OOP) directions. Previous post-earthquake site examinations revealed that the failure of infill walls can result in serious injuries and casualties. Furthermore, huge economic losses as well as disruption in the functionality of essential buildings that are supposed to be operational after earthquakes may adversely affect the daily life in the earthquake-affected regions. One of the potential methods for increasing the seismic resilience of infill walls is use of bed-joint reinforcement between infill courses. In this paper, the general approaches in the establishment of the numerical finite element model for infill walls with and without bed-joint reinforcement are presented. The developed model was evaluated according to the previous full-scale experimental test results from strength and damage propagation point of view. The model will be used to investigate the response of infills with various bed-joint reinforcement amounts and height-to-length ratios to generalize the seismic performance improvements obtained by the use of flat-truss reinforcement both in the IP and OOP directions.
