This
report, produced by
a TMS team dispatched
to the site immediately
following the earthquake,
details the performance
of masonry structures,
including reinforced
masonry, unreinforced
masonry, anchored veneer,
parking garages, chimneys,
and buildings under
construction. Liberal
use of photographs allows
you to see the actual
performance of many
different buildings
of every conceivable
configuration and construction
type. The actual and
expected performance
is then analyzed for
each type of structure.
Actions needed to improve
the performance of masonry
structures are pointed
out in detail and research
needs are identified.
