The observed earthquake response of unreinforced and reinforced masonry buildings during the October 1 and 4, 1987 Whittier Narrows Earthquakes was documented in a comprehensive building survey. This paper describes the extent of the survey, the type of data collected and a preliminary summary of some survey results.

The work focuses on the analysis of the seismic response of masonry building aggregates for a better understanding of the vulnerability of single structural units and of their behaviour within the aggregates. Idealized representative models are developed based on the typical characteristics of the row conglomeration typology. The seismic response of the models is evaluated and discussed by means of nonlinear dynamic analyses.

Existing un-reinforced masonry buildings made of vaults, columns and brick and multi-leaf stone masonry walls, many of which have historical and cultural importance, constitute a significant portion of construction heritage in Europe and rest of the world. Recent earthquakes in southern Europe have shown the vulnerability of un-reinforced masonry constructions due to masonry almost total lack of tensile resistance. Composite materials offer promising retrofitting possibilities for masonry buildings and present several well-known advantages over existing conventional techniques. The aim of this work is to analyze the effectiveness of seismic-upgrading methods both on un-damaged (preventive reinforcement) and damaged (repair) masonry building. After a brief description of mechanical and physical properties of composite materials, three different applications have been addressed: in-plane reinforcement of masonry walls, extrados and intrados reinforcement of masonry vaults/arches and masonry column confinement with composite materials.

Framed-Ground Floor Structure for short which has serious seismic damage and high collapsed rate, is the unreasonable structure system. The experiences is 1. The shear wall can be increased to improve stiffness of weak layer. And designer should try to arrange the walls equably. 2. In order to avoid stiffness mutation, stiffness ratio between ground frame and transition layer can be adjusted. 3. Collapse resistant design of Framed-Ground Floor Structures should be emphasized. Then seismic response analysis is conducted by ANSYS. And the seismic response is little, and strength damage or stable damage do not occur for the little acceleration peak. Along with the increasing acceleration peak, The bigger horizontal displacement leads to damage of Framed-Ground Floor Structures. Moreover, the damage is in advance as the increasing acceleration peak.
