Assessment of seismic behavior of traditional timber frame Ottoman houses: Frame tests

open access: yes, 2010
There are numerous observations made following a number of historic and contemporary earthquakes, claiming that the Ottoman traditional timber-frame, himis, houses have an inherent seismic resistant property. It is argued that timber frame houses behaved
