Abstract

There has been an increase on the interest of Engineers and designers to use designing methods based on displacement and behavior ( designing based on performance) Regarding to the importance of resisting structure design against dynamic loads such as earthquake , and inability to design according to prediction of nonlinear behavior element caused by nonlinear properties of constructional material . Economically speaking, easy carrying out and accessibility of masonry material have caused an enormous increase in masonry structures in villages, towns and cities. On the other hand, there is a necessity to study behavior and Seismic Vulnerability in these kinds of structures since Iran is located on the earthquake belt of Alpide. Different reasons such as environmental, economic, social, cultural and accessible constructional material have caused different kinds of constructional structures. In this study, some tied walls have been modeled with software and with relevant accelerator suitable with geology conditions under dynamic analysis to research on the Seismic Vulnerability and performance level of confined brick walls. Results from this analysis seem to be satisfactory after comparison of them with the values in Code ATC40, FEMA and standard 2800 of Iran.
