Abstract

In the dynamic analysis of old stone masonry buildings subjected to two-component strong ground motions the variability and uncertainties connected both with the forcing actions and the non linear mechanical behaviour are conditions not eliminable. For these reasons it is suitable to develop analytical models capable of describing the global seismic behaviour but simple enough to allow extensive parametric analyses at an acceptable computational cost. The 2dof modellisation presented herein is appropriate to approximate in particular the dynamic response of tall buildings geometrically regular enough to let the contribute of the modes higher than the first be negligible.

Numerical analyses are then carried out in order to study the effects of the orientation and shape of the horizontal section in connexion with the different hysteretic behaviours of the material.
