Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (B)(Natural disaster / Disaster prevention science): Effectiveness of strengthen method of cultural buildings in 2016 Myanmar earthquake and its application to urban disaster prevention
In this study, the effectiveness of seismic retrofitting method in historic buildings, structural performance evaluation of buildings in urban areas of Myanmar, and evaluation of soil structure of Myanmar are carried out. The periodic characteristics of masonry buildings in Myanmar and the effectiveness and application of reinforcement were evaluated. It is shown that brick walls can be an effective seismic element in buildings in Myanmar if they can be prevented from falling out of the plane. Furthermore, by comparing the strong motion characteristics and the damage data of the temple, it is shown that the strong motion characteristics in Bagan city, the relationship between the earthquake intensity and the damage was evaluated. The soil characteristics in Yangon and Mandalay were proposed.
