    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.

    State of the Art in Application of Seismic Isolation and Energy Dissipation in Turkey
    (Springer International Publishing Ag, 2023) Şadan, Bahadır
    This paper summarizes the passive structural control system applications and other related developments in Turkey, emphasizing the period between 2019 and 2022. The country hosts state-of-the-art seismic isolation applications, relatively greater in size, and use more isolators in each project (415 isolators per building on average) compared to the other seismic isolation projects worldwide. Construction of the world's largest seismic isolated building, Istanbul Basaksehir Pine and Sakura City Hospital, covering more than 1 million square meters of area and employing more than 2000 seismic isolators, was completed and has been in service since May 2020. 1915 Canakkale Bridge, constructed in memory of the great war of Canakkale during World War I, is now the world's longest suspension bridge with a 2023m main span length. Eight massive hydraulic dampers were used at the main deck and 48 at the approach viaducts in combination with 72 seismic isolators. Construction of a residential building complex in Istanbul consisting of 16 isolated blocks covering more than 170,000 m(2) area and having 454 seismic isolators is coming to an end very soon. Historical Nusretiye Clock Tower in Istanbul was relocated a few meters over seismic isolators. Historical Goztepe Railway Station in Istanbul was retrofitted to accommodate an additional railway line using seismic isolation technology. Seismic codes for buildings and bridges now include rules for the seismically isolated design of structures. Additionally, all seismic isolation designs must be peer-reviewed by law. A new seismic isolator testing facility was established in Eskisehir to respond to the demand for the large number of isolators that need to be tested.
