This is a companion volume to Seismic Stabilization of Historic Abode Structures: Final Report of the Getty Seismic Abode Project, and it offers guidance for planners, architects and engineers in the retrofitting of historic and culturally significant abode structures. The text consists of two parts: a planning guide, which outlines the fundamental conservation principles and preparatory steps in the design of a plan, and an engineering guide, which describes the types of earthquake damage typically encountered in historic abode buildings and presents detailed technical procedures for...

This book describes tests performed on model adobe buildings used to evaluate seismic damage mitigation techniques applicable to the retrofitting of historic and culturally significant adobe structures. Part of the Getty Seismic Adobe Project (GSAP), the three-year program outlined in this volume was designed to develop and test minimally invasive, inexpensive, and easily implemented methods of protecting such structures from severe earthquake damage. The authors identify typical failure modes of adobe structures and describe specific retrofit techniques to help minimize such failures....
