Seismic performance evaluation of traditional timber hımış frames: capacity spectrum method based assessment [PDF]
Timber constructions have been widely suggested to be seismically resistant based on post-disaster reconnaissance studies. This observation has, however, remained to a large extent anecdotal due to the lack of experimental work supporting it, especially ...
