Paredes resistentes de alvenaria de tijolo reforçadas com revestimentos armados
As construções antigas fazem parte do tecido histórico das cidades, pelo que é importante proceder a intervenções de reabilitação eficientes, mas não destruidoras da sua identidade e valor cultural intrínseco. No contexto do reforço sísmico, a utilização de rebocos armados apresenta-se como uma solução simples e pouco intrusiva. Os rebocos armados em paredes conferem um aumento da resistência e da ductilidade ao corte (no plano) e da ductilidade à flexão (fora do plano), um aumento da resistência superficial e permitem ainda um melhor controlo da fendilhação.Neste artigo será apresentada a caracterização experimental dos materiais constituintes das alvenarias (argamassas de assentamento, argamassas de revestimento e tijolos), e os resultados obtidos em ensaios de compressão diagonal de pequenos provetes de alvenaria, com e sem a aplicação de rebocos armados.

Two-way bending out-of-plane collapse of a full-scale URM building tested on a shake table
This paper describes a shake table test on a one-storey full-scale unreinforced masonry structure, which complements an earlier testing of a two-storey structure with similar characteristics. The building specimen was meant to represent the upper floors of the end-unit of a terraced house, built with cavity walls and without any particular seismic design or detailing. In these specimens, the masonry walls were composed of two leaves: a load-bearing inner one made of calcium silicate bricks sustaining a reinforced concrete floor and an external leaf made of clay-bricks connected to the inner leaf by means of metallic ties. A pitched timber roof was supported by two triangular gable walls. Floor acceleration response histories of the previously tested two-storey specimen were used as input motions. An incremental dynamic test, with vertical and horizontal inputs, was carried out up to the explicit collapse of some bearing elements of the structure. In particular, a two-way bending out-of-plane collapse of a load-bearing wall was observed and described.

Wind tunnel and CFD analysis of wind-induced natural ventilation in sheds roof building: impact of alignment and distance between sheds
Sheds roof is a natural ventilation strategy that presents roof openings working as air collectors or extractors. A detailed review of the literature indicates a lack of research analyzing the impact of different sheds roof shapes and roof configurations on natural ventilation potential. his paper aims to evaluate the impact of changes in distance and alignment between wind catcher and leeward sheds roof. The methodology was Computational Fluid Dynamics (FCD) simulation. tests were performed in a atmospheric boundary layer wind tunnel on a 1:15 scale model to evaluate the accuracy of CFD simulations in different design configurations of sheds roof. The analysis showed that CFD simulations are generaly in good agreement with the wind tunnel tests. The difference between the most o the monitored points in the two tools used had errors below 10%. besides this, the results show that changes in alignment of the sheds and increasing distance between them decrease and increase the internal airflow to the leeward and windward sheds of the roof, respectively. In the first case it is due to the reduction in the sheds openings area. In the second these changes turn the sheds more effective in the air capture.

Análise da segurança de pontes sujeitas a ações dinâmicas durante a reabilitação dos pilares
Apresenta-se neste artigo um estudo de análise da segurança das pontes Criz II e de São João de Areias, na albufeira da barragem da Aguieira, em Portugal, durante a execução de novas fundações, no âmbito das empreitadas de reabilitação, na proximidade dos pilares afetados por reações expansivas do betão no seu embasamento. A ação dinâmica induzida pela perfuração de maciços rochosos foi modelada como uma ação periódica composta por um momento torsor aplicado na fundação de cada pilar isolado combinado com três forças ortogonais representando a força imposta pela caroteadora e os desequilíbrios das tensões de corte por rotação.Através da análise dinâmica linear das estruturas completas e de análises não lineares estáticas e dinâmicas dos pilares, foram estabelecidas as condicionantes às vibrações induzidas pelas máquinas caroteadoras, nomeadamente em termos de limites máximos da resposta em velocidade no topo dos embasamentos, edefinidas as condições de monitorização da estrutura durante a obra. Estas especificações foram elaboradas em estreita colaboração com técnicos da Infraestruturas de Portugal, I.P., e incluídas nas Cláusulas Técnicas Especiais para o lançamento da empreitada.

Dynamic interaction between the shaking table and the specimen during earthquake tests
The boundary conditions between the tested structures and the platform of a large shaking table are a major parameter for the design and numerical analyses of shaking table tests. A foremost attention is given to the design of the foundation and anchorage of the structure. All analyses are made considering a completely rigid shaking table: rigid actuators and rigid platform. However, since quite a long time, the shaking table / structure interaction has been clearly observed (Blondet and Esparza, 1988) when analysing the shaking table / actuators interaction, depending on the control tuning. In CEA Saclay, during the last 15 years, decreases of mock-up frequencies between calculations and experimental tests of massive structures have been observed: CASSBA, CAMUS 1 to 4, CAMUS 2000 (Combescure and Ragueneau, 2002) and more recently SMART. For a long time it has been calculated, after tests, the global stiffness that the

Parâmetros das leis de Frequência-Magnitude para as Novas Zonas de Sismogénese Delineadas para a Região do Algarve
The collaborative research project ERSTA (Estudo do Risco Sísmico e de Tsunamis do Algarve), supported by ANPC (Autoridade Nacional de Protecção Civil), as given rise to a series of new developments, namely therevised seismic catalogue from IM (Instituto de Meteorologia) and the redrawing of new seismogenic zones affecting the Algarve region. It is therefore relevant to review the parameters of the Gutenberg-Richtermagnitude-frequency relation, intending to perform a future revision of the probabilistic seismic hazard analysisof the region and its disaggregation. The parameters of the Gutenberg-Richter magnitude-frequency relationships for the new seismogenic zones (IM, 2008) were estimated for unequal observation periods fordifferent magnitude ranges - determined through the analysis of the completeness of the seismic catalogue from IM - using the maximum likelihood method (Weichert, 1980).

Earthquake loss estimation and mitigation in Europe: a review and comparison of alternative approaches.
The paper contributes to an assessment of the uncertainties involved in the use of current loss modeling methodologies when applied to the estimation of building damage and casualty generation in urban areas. The work derives from studies conducted within the EU-funded LESSLOSS project with the aim of providing a basis for urban planning authorities methods to assess alternative mitigation strategies. Research teams in Istanbul, Thessaloniki and Lisbon developed methods applicable to their own city and building stock. A benchmarking study was then carried out to compare the results of the three approaches when applied to a standardized

Experimental investigation on non-engineered masonry houses in low to moderate seismicity areas.
This paper presents the results of shaking table tests performed on two full-scale masonry houses typical from North-European countries. The main objective of the study was to assess the seismic behavior of such houses for situations of low to moderate seismicity, as well as to evidence the efficiency of some reinforcing details. Themain outcomes are that the value of the behavior factor ("q") for unreinforced masonry and the value of the limitslenderness of masonry panels adjacent to openings proposed by Eurocode 8 are confirmed by the experimentalresults. Furthermore, the devices proposed to improve the seismic behavior are found efficient for limiting the damages in the range of seismicity level for which they are intended but have no impact on the global collapse limitstate.

Experimental studies on the characteristics of tuned liquid dampers for reducing vibration in structures
Traditional design approaches usually consider seismic actions as equivalent static actions. Recent research has shown that adopting a dynamic approach where the real characteristics of seismic actions are taken into account may lead to reach significant behavior improvements. The inclusion of energy dissipation passive devices is nowadays seen as an effective way of improving structures protection towards seismic actions. A significant number of this kind of devices is already placed in real structures all over the world.Vibration mitigation of the seismic actions imposed to the structures is being more and more taken into account in structures design. In order to get more effective systems, structure

Performance evaluation of a reversible flow double skin facade.
Double-skin facade is an architectural/engineering solution developed from the need to increase comfort in buildings with full glazed facades. The actual concept of holistic approaches to the building energy system considers DSF as an element of an Advanced Integrated Facade. DSF were developed for colder climates and uncertainty remains on their applicability to warmer areas. Moreover there is a need for data under post-occupancy buildings in order to properly evaluate how they work from comfort and energy use points of view and to improve and validate models and predictions from design tools. Double skin facades (DSF) may show different layouts, flow path or type of ventilation (natural, mechanical or hybrid). In order to evaluate the thermal behaviour of such a facade LNEC (39º N) assembled a south facing test facility allowing changing among some of the possible configurations. Being a reversible flow type of DSF it means that it is possible to test configurations such as (according to the classification established within the IEA ANNEX 44 (Marques da Silva and Gosselin, 2006)): Outdoor Air Curtain (OAC); Indoor Air Curtain (IAC); Exhaust Air (EA), or; Supply Air (SA). It is also possible to use any kind of ventilation type, the layout being established as a box window (BW) or, as a limit, a Buffer (Bf) configuration. Some of these DSF configurations have been tested by others authors through either test cells experiments (Saelens, 2002) or field monitoring (Corgnati et al.,2003; Marques da Silva et al., 2005, 2006, 2008

Performance evaluation of advanced integrated façades in laboratory facilities.
A wide experimental campaign on transparent advanced integrated façades with a mechanically, naturally andhybrid ventilated air gap has been carried out both at the Department of Energetics at Politecnico di Torino and at Laboratório Nacional de Engenharia Civil (LNEC) in Lisbon. Measurements were performed by means of: - the TWINS (Testing Window INnovative Systems); test facility, at Politecnico di Torino; the reversible flow type DSF test cell, at LNEC. At Politecnico di Torino a mechanically ventilated climate façade and a hybrid ventilated DSF with an outdoor air curtain ventilation scheme have been investigated. At LNEC a naturally ventilated DSF with different ventilation schemes (outdoor air curtain, indoor air curtain, exhaust air, supply air or, as a limit, a buffer configuration) has been tested. The energy efficiency and thermal comfort implications of these different types of advanced integrated façade have been evaluated. Theimprovement of performance by varying configurations and operative conditions has also been investigated.

Seismic zonation for portuguese national annex of Eurocode 8
The development of the Portuguese National Annexes of Eurocode 8 required the definition of a seismic zonation for Portugal. The goal of this paper is to present the applied methodology to perform the Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis (PSHA) and to obtain seismic zonation for Portugal Mainland, Azores and Madeira Archipelagos. Similarly to the Portuguese code presently enforce (RSA, 1983), two scenarios were considered in PSHA computation: (i) a scenario labeled seismic action 1, characterizing earthquakes with their epicenters mainly offshore and (ii) a scenario labeled seismic action 2, referring to events with their epicenters mainly inland. The model of gross-source zones and the parameters defining seismic occurrence process in each source zone, like the Poissonian process and the exponential distribution of magnitudes, was adapted from Sousa (1996). Two different spectral attenuation laws were applied, consistent with the two above mentioned seismic scenarios, namely: (i) a recent regional attenuation law derived for Portuguese seismotectonic environment, based on a finite fault non-stationary stochastic seismological model calibrated for the region (Carvalho et al., 2008), valid for seismic action 1 and (ii) the Ambraseys et al. (1996) model, valid for seismic action 2. The PSHA was performed for all Portuguese counties and for the 475 years return period. The correspondent hazard map was used as the basis for seismic zonation. Portuguese counties were sorted according to their Housner intensity, which was used as a criterion to classify each county in a pre-defined number of seismic zones.

Shaking table tests on semi-active tuned mass and tuned liquid dampers
One of the goals of the COVICOCEPAD project is to develop a mathematical model of tuned liquid dampers (TLD) devices. This new model will take into account the damping forces resisting the actions resulting from the viscous interactions between the liquid and its rigid container, the hydrodynamic head losses subsequent to orifices passing and the internal viscosity of the liquid. To calibrate the mathematical models full scale tests on shaking table are being performed. A performance evaluation of the TLD devices will be accomplished by the comparison between the behaviour of a specific structure with and without passive protection. This work addresses on the possibility of exploiting the liquid sloshing motion in tanks for specific vibration control purposes of civil engineering structures. Analytical, numerical and experimental issues are referred and the test steel frame is presented.

Historical earthquake-resistant timber framing in the mediterranean area
This book presents a selection of the best papers from the HEaRT 2015 conference, held in Lisbon, Portugal, which provided a valuable forum for engineers and architects, researchers and educators to exchange views and findings concerning the technological history, construction features and seismic behavior of historical timber-framed walls in the Mediterranean countries. The topics covered are wide ranging and include historical aspects and examples of the use of timber-framed construction systems in response to earthquakes, such as the gaiola system in Portugal and the Bourbon system in southern Italy; interpretation of the response of timber-framed walls to seismic actions based on calculations and experimental tests; assessment of the effectiveness of repair and strengthening techniques, e.g., using aramid fiber wires or sheets; and modelling analyses. In addition, on the basis of case studies, a methodology is presented that is applicable to diagnosis, strengthening and improvement of seismic performance and is compatible with modern theoretical principles and conservation criteria. It is hoped that, by contributing to the knowledge of this construction technique, the book will help to promote conservation of this important component of Europe

Earthquake disaster scenario prediction and loss modelling for urban areas
The overall aim of Sub-Project 10 (Earthquake disaster scenario predictions and loss modelling for urban areas) has been to create a tool, based on state-of-the-art loss modelling software, to provide strong, quantified statements about the benefits of a range of possible mitigation actions, in order to support decision-making by urban authorities for seismic risk mitigation strategies. A further larger aim has been to contribute to a seismic risk mitigation policy for future implementation at European level. Among the European cities for which loss estimation studies have been carried out are Istanbul, Lisbon and Thessaloniki, and tools, using GIS mapping, have been developed by research teams in each of these cities; these were made available for further development to examine mitigation strategies within SP10.

European manual for in-situ assessment of important existing structures. LessLoss Sub Project 5-In-situ assessment, monitoring and typification of buildings and infrastructure
Much work in Earthquake Engineering was devoted to the improvement of earthquake resistant design of new structures. One European result is EN 1998, which will be in several years the main seismic code for all European countries. But it is well known, that older existing structures cause in many large earthquakes much more casualties and damages than new structures. It is certainly not possible to retrofit all existing structures, but agreement exists, that assessment and retrofit of safety - critical - structures and lifeline structures must have priority. In September 2004 the European Integrated Research Project LESSLOSS on Risk Mitigation for Earthquakes and Landslides was started. The project will run for three years and comprises 13 Sub-Projects (SP´s). The consortium consists of 46 partners (see http:\\www.lessloss.org). LESSLOSS SP5 is on In-situ Assessment, Monitoring and Typification of buildings and Infrastructure. The project partners of SP5 are ARS, CESI, LNEC, RWTH and VCE. This Sub Project focuses mainly on the assessment of important existing structures and tries to integrate experimental methods into the assessment procedure. The progress of SP5 obtained in the first year is summarized in this paper. Highlights presented by all partners are mentioned and the assessment of Hospital Innsbruck is presented in more detail. The most innovative task of LESSLOSS/ SP5 is Update of vulnerability estimates via monitoring, which was also started in the first year.

Modal analysis from ambient vibration survey of bridges: LNEC experience
In order to study the behavior of bridge structures in relation to traffic, wind and seismic loads, it is extremely important to know their actual dynamic properties (natural frequencies, vibration mode shapes and damping). The experimentally identified dynamic properties of bridge structures are also an effective way to characterize their actual global structural behavior. Whether included in the reception load tests of recently built bridges, before they are opened to the traffic, or as part of the inspection works of bridges already in service, LNEC has performed modal analysis studies based on the results of ambient vibration tests. Some of the studies carried out recently in important bridges are reported in this paper.

Shaping favorable beliefs towards seismic protection through risk communication: A pilot-experience in two Lisbon schools (Portugal).
Communicating science within disaster risk reduction using methods that encourage two-way dialogue between scientists and laypersons is a challenging task. This paper aims at presenting a methodological strategy of communicating risk and non-structural seismic protection measures through participatory approach. Such methodological strategy is part of a pilot experience of risk communication in two schools in Lisbon (Portugal) under the EU project KnowRISK (Know your city, Reduce seISmic risK through non-structural elements). The efficacy of education for seismic safety is often inhibited by an incomplete understanding of the process by which individuals decide to protect themselves from harm (Becker JS, Paton D,Johnston DM, Ronan KR.

KnowRISK practical guide for mitigation of seismic risk due to non-structural components
Good performance of non-structural elements can be decisive in saving lives and costs when an earthquake strikes. The European project KnowRISK aims to educate and encourage households to take the necessary precautionary measures to protect people, houses, and contents. Preparedness and prevention act on community resilience. Within the KnowRISK project, the idea of a Practical Guide has been conceived suggesting seismic mitigation solutions for non-structural components to non-experts stakeholders. It is intended to guide people into the first steps of prevention in a straightforward manner, minimizing or avoiding injuries, damage, and long-term financial consequences. The novelty of the Guide belongs to his philosophy: a path through increasing challenges corresponds to a growing level of safety. The idea is that anyone can mitigate seismic risk in its own environment by adopting simple and low cost measures. The Practical Guide may contribute to increase risk awareness. This kind of initiatives if undertaken at larger scales may also enhance social resilience.

Risco sísmico em Portugal Continental
Os sismos são encarados frequentemente como desastres naturais inevitáveis. Todavia,deveriam ser considerados fenómenos naturais, cujos efeitos adversos podem ser minimizadoscaso se proceda a uma gestão efectiva do risco sísmico.O objectivo principal do presente trabalho de investigação é o de avaliar o risco sísmicoem Portugal Continental.Sendo um tema de natureza multidisciplinar, apresentam-se e discutem-se modelos deavaliação probabilística da perigosidade sísmica e sua desagregação, de vulnerabilidade efragilidade sísmicas de tipologias construtivas, de danos e de perdas económicas e humanas.Aplica-se a análise probabilística da perigosidade sísmica, e sua desagregação, aPortugal Continental, obtendo-se cenários modais capazes de reproduzir os níveis deperigosidade que os condicionam. Apresenta-se o inventário do parque habitacional e seushabitantes, descriminado por factores de vulnerabilidade, e classifica-se a sua vulnerabilidadesegundo os modelos de dano. Procede-se à actualização e aferição de uma metodologia parasimulação de cenários sísmicos, integrada num Sistema de Informação Geográfico. Avalia-seo risco sísmico, seguindo diversas abordagens, comparando-se os resultados com o risco deoutros países.Construiu-se assim uma ferramenta de avaliação de perdas devidas a sismos, queconstitui uma primeira contribuição para o desenvolvimento de um processo de gestão dorisco sísmico aplicado ao Continente Português.

Avaliação de risco sísmico do edifício Sede I da EDP - Ensaios in situ de caracterização dinâmica e do comportamento mecânico da estrutura do edifício relatório final
O presente estudo teve como objetivo a caracterização dinâmica e do comportamento mecânico da estrutura do edifício Sede I da EDP, para uma adequada simulação do seu comportamento sísmico. Neste relatório descrevem-se os ensaios de identificação dinâmica in situ realizados, com base em vibrações ambiente e em vibrações forçadas, com o objetivo de recolher informação sobre as propriedades dinâmicas da estrutura como um todo e das suas lajes dos pisos elevados em particular. Foi efetuado o registo e a análise dos sinais de aceleração devido a vibração ambiente, medidos em diversos pontos do edifício, bem como devido a vibrações forçadas impostas num dos pisos enterrados do edifício. São também apresentados e analisados os ensaios de caracterização do comportamento mecânico de componentes estruturais relacionadas com a ligação das lajes mistas dos pisos elevados às paredes dos núcleos resistentes de betão armado do edifício. Estes consistem em ensaios destrutivos de troços de laje mista ligados aos núcleos, por meio de varões selados à parede, e em ensaios de arrancamento desses varões, tendo como objetivo caracterizar os materiais e componentes dos elementos estruturais. Esta informação é essencial para a posterior calibração dos modelos numéricos da estrutura e para uma realista simulação do seu comportamento sísmico, bem como para uma eventual deteção de anomalias estruturais decorrentes de patologias que possam comprometer o desempenho do edifício face à ocorrência de sismos.

Mapas de perigosidade sísmica para Portugal Continental: Uma análise crítica - Parte I
Nos estudos probabilísticos para avaliação da perigosidade sísmica, são estabelecidas zonas de geração sísmica (zonas sismogénicas), representando regiões que partilham as mesmas caraterísticas sismológicas, tectónicas e geológicas e definidas as relações entre a frequência com que aí ocorrem os sismos e as respetivas magnitudes, num dado período de tempo. Em 2006, para o Anexo Nacional do Eurocódigo 8, foram consideradas e caraterizadas 11 zonas Sismogénicas para Portugal continental, adaptadas de estudos previamente elaborados em 1996. Entre 2008 e 2009, no âmbito dos projetos ERSTA e SHARE, foram propostas novas zonas sismogénicas, e estimados os respetivos parâmetros da lei de frequência - magnitude. Estas diferentes propostas resultaram em diferentes mapas de perigosidade sísmica para Portugal continental. A SPES, Sociedade Portuguesa de Engenharia Sísmica, espelhando a inquietude existente na comunidade científica face às diversas expressões da perigosidade sísmica em Portugal, e consciente da necessidade de um consenso perante os agentes decisores, considerou urgente a realização de um estudo criterioso acerca das opções tomadas, nos diferentes estudos, e suas implicações. É nestecontexto que surge este trabalho, que pretende fazer uma análise crítica e comparativa dos resultadosobtidos nos diferentes estudos mencionados e as suas implicações ao nível dos períodos de retorno para sismos de maior magnitude. Numa parte II, serão estudadas as implicações em termos de valores da perigosidade sísmica, para vários períodos de retorno e frequências espetrais.
