Seismic Performance Evaluation of Historical Case Study of Armenian Architecture Tekor Church

Burçin Şenol Şeker and Merve ÖZKAYNAK · 2022

Catalogue summary

A macro-model of Tekor Church under dynamic earthquake loads locates elevated stress at column supports, upper columns, and connecting arches, while maximum deformation appears at the triangular gable peaks and accords with earlier damage.

Why this matters

The engineering results translate a historic Armenian church case into conservation guidance for similarly constructed masonry monuments in seismic zones.
