Abstract:
Combined non-destructive in situ techniques – namely sonic tests and ambient vibration measurements – are applied on two Nepali Pagoda temples damaged by the 2015 Gorkha earthquake, providing the dynamic elastic modulus of masonry and the buildings’ frequencies.
Keywords: Non-destructive combined techniques; sonic test; ambient vibrations; earthquake damage.
